i wonder which season was the first one to be given a name
-F

@monorail i was thinking winter, because it's the one that's most clearly distinct from the rest, at least in the climates we're familiar with--and i thiiiink also the climate of the indus river valley? which gives it a good chance of being among the first to be named since that was one of the oldest civilizations we know of

@monorail but also spring being the time you plant things is reasonable! also if i'm wrong and the indus river valley gets like, monsoons or something then monsoon season (or perhaps calm-weather season) may have been the first named
