Accuracy edit

The article could use discussion of the accuracy of these annals: some entries are said to correctly place the time of the tide at a certain battle; others the concern meteorological info seem to all check out. This as opposed to the Annales Cambriae B which even by its own reckoning of AD is at least 30 years off somewhere. — LlywelynII 20:50, 11 February 2013 (UTC)Reply

Calendar edit

If someone knows, the internet doesn't seem to so far: what is the new years day used for computing these entries? Did they continue to use 1 Jan in defiance of the council of Tours or did they use 1 Mar, 25 Mar, or 25 Dec? — LlywelynII 20:50, 11 February 2013 (UTC)Reply
