The Māori planting calendar, known as the "Māori lunar calendar" or "Maramataka," is a traditional system that guides agricultural activities based on lunar phases and seasonal changes. It divides the year into specific months, each associated with particular planting and harvesting times for various crops, such as kumara (sweet potato) and taro. The calendar emphasizes the connection between the lunar cycle, natural phenomena, and the well-being of the land, ensuring sustainable practices. It reflects the Māori relationship with their environment, promoting harmony and respect for nature's rhythms.

The Aztecs based their agricultural and ceremonial calendar on their religious beliefs and the movements of celestial bodies. They had a complex system that involved multiple calendars – a solar calendar for agriculture and a sacred calendar for ceremonies. Priests studied these calendars to determine the most auspicious times for planting, harvesting, and conducting rituals.
That provided the only "calendar" to predict the best planting and harvest times to optimize crop yield.
Calendars were created in agricultural societies. The dates when the rainy seasons begin are predictable. By having a calendar, it is possible to predict in advance when the planting had harvest seasons should start. Thus, everything can be prepared in advance.
