medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
As I see, you read German: All your questions are answered at the
"Grotefend". There is a littele booklet "Taschenbuch der
Zeitrechnung", which should be in every liberary and is for most
historians enough, and a long version, the "Handbuch".
