During the Time of Naming, the gods appointed the years to pass in cycles of twenty, with each year represented by an animal. Each cycle is known as a "Turn" - hence, someone born over forty but under sixty years ago would talk of being born in a particular year "two Turns ago". The years pass in the following order:
| Years | |||||||||||||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Dragon |
Lion |
Snake |
Ox |
Tiger |
Goat |
Mouse |
Deer |
Bat |
Wolf |
Eagle |
Dog |
Spider |
Rabbit |
Fox |
Crocodile |
Owl |
Cat |
Shark |
Horse

Whereas this Yearly Reckoning is used throughout the civilised lands of Titan, the people of Hachiman follow a different calendar.
