Months of Plenty
The chronicler Ibn Iyas writes that among the marvels of Egypt
is that each of the Coptic months is noted for a special food or
scent: the dates of Toot, and the Pomegranates of Baba, and the
bananas of Hatur, and the Fish of Kiahk and the water of Tooba,
the Ramees of Amshir, the milk of Baramhat, the flowers of
Barmouda, the Naba of Bashans, the figs of Buna, the honey of
Abeeb, and the grapes of Misri.
