'This is often considered to be man’s first attempt at a calendar' she explained. She paused as we dutifully wrote this down. ‘My question to you is this – what man needs to mark 28 days?

In that second I stopped to question almost everything I had been taught about the past. How often had I overlooked women’s contributions?”
