Coming of Salmakhamer
The Coming of the Prophet Salmakhamer marks the beginning of the Isxinthion Calendar. The prophet Salmakhamer is thought to be from ancient Kalama or Throvy and is claimed by as many lands in between those regions. Historians generally accept Kalama as the land of his nativity and the anniversary of his birth is celebrated with much enthusiasm by both Arathracians and Tassans to this day. Salmakhamer is considered a 'holy man' or saint of the Old Isxinthion Religion. While the Isxinthion Gods had been worshiped for well over fifteen thousand years before his time, Salmakhamer brought a message of reformation and return to their worship as a cure for plagues and famines and the rejuvenation of human tribes. He visited many lands throughout the Pallathantic with his message and Elántuventh claims the site of his burial.
Salmakhamer also taught the Isxinthion Calendar which begins the year on Summer Solstice. Prior to this time many tribes and cultures outside of Kalama begun the year on Spring Equinox.
