A slim body is a sign of health and a person’s concern for his own well-being. Excess weight is a cause of heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, arthritis and gout. Obesity leads to the development of an inferiority complex and difficulties in relationships with others. Proper nutrition and an active lifestyle are the key to a slim figure and mental harmony. Losing Weight Day, which is celebrated annually on September 15, is called to draw attention to the problems of overweight people. This is interesting: The fashion industry has long turned away from slender, thin women with signs of anorexia and dystrophy towards plump women. Plus-Size beauties since the late 70s. XX century successfully demonstrate clothes for ladies with large body weights and volumes. Models Ashley Graham, Justine Legault, Priscious Lee and Tara Lynn are especially popular among designers and photographers. Their parameters are far from the traditional 90x60x90. All busty beauties are 175 cm tall and weigh 90-98 kg. The TOP 10 countries with the maximum number of residents suffering from obesity include the USA, Great Britain, Ireland, Thailand, Brazil and other countries. Russia ranks 8th on the list, followed by the Cook Islands. About 50% of the Russian population suffers from some degree of obesity. Therefore, celebrating Losing Weight Day is important for Russian women and men. The main problem of modern man is physical inactivity. The development of science and technology has led to people moving less. However, the decrease in physical activity was not followed by a decrease in the number of calories consumed. The problem of obesity has reached planetary proportions. In addition to shortness of breath, extra pounds lead to metabolic disorders in the body and hormonal imbalances. Therefore, even after losing weight, a person has to restore his physical health for a long time. WHO and other organizations around the world are involved in the fight against excess weight, which have developed programs aimed at attracting people's attention to the importance of an active lifestyle and proper nutrition. What's the best way to celebrate Losing Weight Day? 1. Start on September 15th with a morning jog or exercise. 2. Give up junk food for at least a day - fast food, sweets, chips, carbonated drinks, etc. 3. Study recipes for preparing dietary dishes. Strict diets and fasting are unsafe and are not recommended by doctors. 4. If there are no contraindications (kidney or heart problems), increase the amount of water consumed per day to 2 liters. 5. Sign up for a trial fitness class at a sports club. 6. Go to thematic forms for those who plan to lose weight, or attend lectures by nutritionists. 7. Start practicing mediation, which prevents the development of many diseases, incl. and obesity. This is interesting: The slimmest among the world's population are residents of Asian countries. Scientists attribute this to the genetic characteristics of the Mongoloid race and food culture. Asians eat small portions, consume plenty of omega-rich fish and seafood, leafy greens, and fermented foods (a source of probiotics). Eastern countries are densely populated, so instead of stuck in traffic jams on private cars and public transport, their residents choose to travel on foot. The absence of extra pounds increases immunity and contributes to the body’s active fight against infectious and other diseases. A slender figure helps a woman gain self-confidence and attract the attention of members of the opposite sex. In order to say goodbye to excess weight, you don’t need to start a new life on Monday. To start on the path to your dream, a slender body and a toned figure, Losing Weight Day is very suitable.

September 15th is Free Money Day. A social experiment to popularize the sharing economy was launched in 2011. On this day, it is customary to give money to strangers - 2 coins or paper bills at a time, with the condition that one of them be given to another person. In 2020, amid the pandemic, money began to be shared digitally. The date for celebrating Free Money Day was not chosen by chance - September 15, 2008, the American financial services company Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. filed for bankruptcy. Its collapse led to a global economic crisis and hit thousands of middle-income investors around the world. The initiators of the celebration are the Post Growth Institute from the USA. Modern experts call “post-growth” a slowdown in economic growth and limiting the size of the Earth’s population, which cannot grow indefinitely. The ideologist of the movement to reduce the number of people on the planet is the head of the WEF, Klaus Schwab. According to the plan of the elites, which he conveys in his book “The Great Reset,” paper money will not play a big role in the society of the future. They will be replaced by electronic ones - digital currency. According to the idea of ​​the initiators of Free Money Day, led by Donnie McLurcan, co-founder of the institute, people around the globe should understand the benefits of joint consumption of goods or services and begin to popularize a new type of economic activity. On September 15, cafe owners give customers free coffee with the condition that they donate the corresponding amount to strangers. People donate funds in the most unusual ways. One Twitter user left £10 on a toilet seat in a public place. They received a comment on a social network that for someone “this will be the happiest visit to the toilet.” It cannot be stated unequivocally that the distribution of bills or coins contributes to the development of a new, progressive type of financial relations. It is known that free cheese only comes in a mousetrap. According to the organizers of the holiday, which is celebrated around the world on September 15, events in the form of donating money should stimulate people's critical and creative thinking. This approach is no different in terms of creativity and novelty. How can one not recall Ostap Bender, the legendary hero of the books by Ilf and Petrov, who knew “four hundred relatively honest ways of taking money.” One of them used Kisa Vorobyaninov, who begged in a park in Pyatigorsk, using the now famous phrase: “Monsieur, not mange pas sis jour” (“Monsieur, I haven’t eaten for 6 days”). According to the initiators of the celebration, Free Money Day participants should begin to think about global problems - the role of credit unions in people's lives, banking and debt forgiveness. This idea refers us to the parable of the unmerciful debtor from the Gospel. It is difficult to imagine that investors who went bankrupt after the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers, and some of them committed suicide, and their relatives are ready to forgive the corporation, whose shares turned out to be a bubble. However, the thought of charity, giving away bills and coins to strangers on September 15th, is definitely a positive idea. And it will be happily implemented by caring people all over the world on Free Money Day.

In 2007, the UN approved a resolution establishing a special Democracy Day. September 15 was chosen as the holiday date in memory of the 20th anniversary of the International Conference of New and Restored Democracies. The UN's plan involves directing public attention to democratic trends in the modern world, because the number of functioning democracies today is the highest in world history. The power structures of more than half of existing states are chosen by the people. Moreover, the government of developed countries is considered legitimate only after popular recognition. Democracy has changed along with human history. It originated in Ancient Greece, where it had a slaveholding basis. As is known, only male citizens of the policy had rights. Individual city-republics of Renaissance Italy flourished thanks to a democratic system. In Rus', Novgorod was such a special city for a long time, where it was the city council that decided the most important issues. Some elements of democracy were adopted by states with a one-man form of government, for example, the elective monarchy of the Holy Roman Empire or the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. The first signs of the impending power of the demos were the revolutionary events of France at the end of the 18th century and the struggle for the independence of the American states. The entire 19th century was spent in battles for the recognition of equal rights for all members of society, regardless of status, gender or skin color. In the second half of the 20th century, the democratic structure of the state gradually became the norm for all developed countries. But to this day, this form of government has problems that are extremely difficult to eradicate. These include: In modern Russia, the democratic euphoria of the 90s ended in sobering, with an eye to the territorial scale and mentality of Russian-speaking citizens. Russians support such democratic values ​​as: freedom of speech, media. More than half of the population believes that Russia needs democracy, but under the firm control of government agencies. Modern democracy is experiencing new difficulties, but is not going to give up its positions. On September 15, there is an opportunity to share experiences and innovations to further improve the ideals of democracy.

Secretary's Day is celebrated on the third Friday of the first month of autumn - September. It has been celebrated all over the world since 1952. In Russia, such a holiday did not exist until 2005. But representatives of this profession decided that this was completely unfair. A group of secretaries from St. Petersburg, Moscow, Perm, Rostov-on-Don, Voronezh, Novosibirsk and Taganrog put forward a proposal to establish their professional holiday. On this day, secretaries are less busy with work, they are given gifts and souvenirs, some companies organize small buffets or dinners in honor of their office workers. The profession of a secretary has long become one of the necessary and important ones. A huge number of responsibilities fall on their shoulders. The secretary must keep strict records of all documentation, answer incoming calls and greet visitors, sort letters received by e-mail, and also draw up a daily schedule and work plan for his manager. At the same time, the secretary must look great and have impeccable taste, as he is the face of the company. Also, an applicant for the position of secretary must have skills in using a computer and other office equipment, be able to conduct office work well and speak one or more foreign languages. Also, those who want to work as a secretary must be prepared for long working hours. After all, he is obliged to be at the workplace as much as his immediate superior. In addition, representatives of this profession must have a good memory, be able to speak beautifully and coherently, and be stress-resistant. The first mention of this profession comes from Ancient Rome. There, the patricians had people who were involved in office work and they were called secretaries. The main task of the secretaries of that time was to give smart advice to their boss and keep secrets known to him. Later, secretaries appeared in medieval Europe. And in Russia they began to use the services of a secretary under Tsar Peter the Great. In those days, only a man who came from a good family and who was a nobleman could be a secretary. And a special institute was opened for the education of future secretaries. During the reign of Catherine the Great, it became fashionable to have several secretaries, but the requirements for those wishing to obtain this position increased significantly. Let's add that there is also International Secretary's Day, which is celebrated on Wednesday of the last full week of April.

Until the middle of the last century, quite recently by historical standards, a headdress was a mandatory part of a man's wardrobe. Women stopped wearing dainty hats in the 1950s and 1960s after elaborate Babette hairstyles became fashionable. The feminist movement led to the fact that the fair sex's skirts became shorter and shorter, and hats became smaller for reasons of practicality. The rule of going out with a covered head was in effect for women from high society until the mid-50s. Today, ladies only wear hats to the races or to royalty. Men abandoned hats after World War II due to the increased use of motorcycles and cars. Caps and hats often flew off from the wind that blew in the face while moving, so it was decided to sacrifice them for the sake of ease of movement. Invented in 1812, the “shapoklyak”, i.e. a cylinder that could fold like an accordion became a real salvation for theatergoers. Other hat models could not boast of such practicality. The headdress often had to be removed not only as a sign of greeting when meeting acquaintances, but also because of the tightness of personal and public transport. In the 20th century people began to spend less time outdoors. The risk of cooling your uncovered head and getting sick as a result was minimized. For the same reason, with the advent of central heating, bonnets and nightcaps became obsolete. Hats have ceased to serve a decorative function and are an accessory required to be worn by women and men. Today, caps are worn only by employees of the population, military personnel and aircraft commanders, and flight attendants, like sailors, wear caps. The elegant bowlers have disappeared, the round flat-topped tablets and straw boaters are almost forgotten. Wide-brimmed hats with feathers for musketeers and hussar shakos can only be seen in historical films, top hats - at the ceremonial appearances of English kings and weddings of crowned persons. An unusual holiday is intended to correct the current situation and make people remember the once popular headdress. September 15th is Make a Hat Day. In honor of Make a Hat Day, parties are held where guests are required to wear hats. On September 15, they hold competitions and jokes and, of course, make hats from cardboard, felt, yarn and fabric. The holiday is an excellent occasion to remember the styles and models of bonnets and caps, bowlers and cocked hats, top hats and borsalinos. To decorate hats, feathers, veils and brooches are used, and silk ribbons are sewn on, which are tied in a bow under the chin. It is too early to write off a headdress, which people could not live without 100 years ago. Members of the Hat Lovers' Association, formed in Great Britain in 1908, are confident of this. They are convinced that this headdress makes the image stylish and gives the owner a brutal appearance. The British are distinguished by their great commitment to tradition. Thus, in Bridport, Dorset, a hat festival is held annually. At the end of the event, all participants take a group photo in their own designed cylinders, tablets and cauldrons. Every year the Hat Association selects a celebrity who has shown a commitment to wearing a classic headdress and looked better in it than other famous people. In 2011, Johnny Depp became the Hat Person of the Year, a year before him - Brad Pitt, and in 2012 - Kate Middleton. The holders of this title are model Kate Moss and rapper Pharrell Williams. The opportunity to feel like a representative of high society, a famous actor or singer who knows how to present himself and knows how to wear a hat, is provided to everyone by Make a Hat Day.

Night is a time of day that attracts people with its mystery. For some, the yellow disk of the moon evokes thoughts of witches flying on broomsticks and horrors with zombies, and for others - about exits to the astral plane. Lucid dreaming is practiced by stalkers, or oneironauts. During the day, they make plans for their travels on the astral plane and agree to meet under the cover of darkness in other worlds. Stalkers easily maintain a state of awareness, demonstrating volitional control, controlling events and even entering other people's dreams. In the morning, the oneironauts discuss the same plots of their travels along the astral plane, where they met at night. In honor of this ability to relax and have fun in the dark, a holiday was established. September 15th is Dream Coincidence Day. The astral world attracts the attention of not only stalkers. The theme of oneironauts' travels is played out in the plots of books that have become bestsellers and in Hollywood films. The drama “Erased Reality” with Sharon Stone, the thrillers “The Cell” with Jennifer Lopez and “Vanilla Sky” with Tom Cruise were filmed about the manipulation of dreams. Christopher Nolan's film Inception, in which an experienced swindler steals secrets from people's subconscious minds at night, received an Oscar in four categories in 2011. Recurring dreams, often nightmares, in most cases are a consequence of post-traumatic syndrome, alcohol intoxication and mental disorders. After a night of torment, a person wakes up in the morning completely broken and unrested. Patients with various sleep disorders, of which there are more than 90 types today, are assisted by a somnologist. In Europe and the USA, this area of ​​clinical medicine is called sleep medicine. Specialists in regressive hypnosis also help people get rid of intrusive dreams. They put patients into an altered state of consciousness and force them to remember traumatic moments from their youth, childhood and even past lives. The self-absorption technique helps to find the roots of the problem, process negativity in order to get rid of recurring dreams and nightmares. If a person is not hypnotizable, sleepers are involved in the process. These sensitives tune in to the patient and plunge into a trance instead of him, fulfilling the assigned tasks: to penetrate the most remote corners of someone else's memory and extract useful information from there. Physiologists and neuroscientists study the ability of people to control their consciousness during a night's sleep. To study this phenomenon, Stephen Labege of Stanford University founded the Institute of Lucid Dreaming in 1987. It not only held lectures and seminars, but also created devices for astral travel of oneironauts. To monitor the feelings of stalkers, sensors were used that recorded indicators of activity of the brain and the whole body. As a result of observations, it was found that the body and central nervous system reacted to dream events as if they occurred in ordinary life. Descriptions of the experience of establishing control over “elusive reality” formed the basis for the dissertations of Stephen Labege and some of the participants in his experiments. Scientific research into lucid dreams is over 40 years old, but it has not brought much benefit to practical medicine. However, this fact does not in any way affect those who like to travel on the astral plane and make dates with other like-minded people there. An unusual holiday - Dream Coincidence Day - invites you to discuss the techniques available to sleepers and the results obtained in the process of using them.

September 15, 1922 is the day the USSR Sanitary and Epidemiological Service was created. From this day on, the creation and formation of specialized sanitary and preventive institutions began. Since this date, the activities of sanitary institutions have been centralized, the number of specialized and narrowly focused sanitary medicine institutions has increased, a system has been formed in the field of preventive measures for viral diseases, education of all segments of the population in the field of sanitary standards began to occur and be promoted, medical care has become a sphere accessible to all layers of citizens. In 1933, the State Sanitary Inspectorate was formed, a supervisory body managing other departments of sanitary medicine in the USSR. The inspectorate existed until the 1950s. In 1963, the “Regulations on State Sanitary Inspection in the USSR” were approved. Since 1991, another stage began in the field of preventive institutions, characterized by the adoption of new measures at the legislative level, namely the introduction of regulation of the activities of the sphere of ensuring sanitary and epidemiological standards. Since 1991, full monitoring of sanitary hygiene and the epidemiological situation in Russia began to be carried out. In 1993, it was separated from the sanitary and epidemiological service, and a new body was created - the State Trade Inspectorate, whose powers included monitoring compliance with rules in the field of trade and public catering, as well as preventing the sale of obviously low-quality or damaged goods and products to stores and retail outlets. . Reorganization and renovation of the sanitary-epidemiological service institutions took place in 2004 and 2013. A new institution was created called Rospotrebnadzor, a body responsible for the protection of consumer rights and the well-being of both the individual citizen and the entire country. Currently, institutions of sanitary and epidemiological services, subordinate and part of Rospotrebnadzor, are engaged in monitoring and supervising the epidemiological situation on the territory of the Russian Federation, and also carry out measures to prevent epidemics, viral and seasonal diseases. The scope of control of Rospotrebnadzor also includes the protection of consumers and their rights in the field of food and non-food products. In 2012, employees of Rospotrebnadzor created and instituted a medal in honor of the ninetieth anniversary of the State Sanitary and Epidemiological Service of the Russian Federation. This medal was awarded to workers in the sanitary and hygienic sector. Few people know, but the Sanitary and Epidemiological Service also has its own unofficial anthem, which talks about the health of citizens. September 15 is an unofficial professional holiday for employees of epidemiological services, the founding day of the SES service in Russia.

National holidays are present in the lives of a huge number of people. Often significant celebrations are timed to coincide with events that could change the course of the history of a particular state. This is a fairly new holiday, which has been celebrated on an ongoing basis since 2011. The first celebration took place on September 15, 2011 in a solemn atmosphere and with a huge crowd of people. At the moment, this is already an established holiday date and an official day off for the whole of Dagestan. More recently, it was a rather “tense point” on the world map. It was here that large-scale clashes between bandit groups and government security forces took place. But over the past few years, passions have gradually subsided, and the indigenous population has become accustomed to living in peace and tranquility. Therefore, it is so important that new holidays and significant dates appear that can really bring together all the people living in a given territory. The Day of Unity of Nations is precisely such a celebration for Dagestan. This significant date is dedicated to one historical event that occurred in 1741. It was during those troubled times that one Iranian commander (Nadir Shah) with an army of thousands invaded the Dagestan territories. At first, a huge and well-armed army won one victory after another. But everything comes to an end. The “proud Dagestanis” were able to repel the “presumptuous” military leader and his minions, and this happened in Andalal. It was here that numerous detachments were sent from all surrounding lands to resist the invaders. Each resident realized that it was impossible to fight the enemy alone. But as soon as a brother’s shoulder appears nearby, you can withstand any adversity.

Every year on September 15, the Republic of Belarus celebrates Library Day. The holiday was established by presidential decree in 2001 and dedicated to the founding day of the National Library, which is the main book depository of the country. The purpose of the holiday is to maintain citizens' interest in reading, as well as to improve the status of library workers. Library workers share their professional holiday with readers. In recent years, festive events dedicated to Library Day have continued not just for one day, but for a week, because the holiday covers not only libraries, but the entire city. Thus, retro exhibitions are held in local history museums, and thematic photo exhibitions are held in galleries; mobile bookcrossing points can be found throughout the city; readers are invited to familiarize themselves with the latest fiction and scientific literature. The “Night in the Library” event is of particular interest to citizens. Traditionally, these days Belarus hosts foreign delegations to hold joint scientific conferences, round tables, and seminars at which issues are raised about the development of librarianship, the preservation of the country’s national fund and the exchange of cultural heritage. The very history of the emergence of libraries in the Western lands of Rus' began in the middle of the 11th century. It is believed that the first library on the territory of modern Belarus was the book depository of the Polotsk St. Sophia Cathedral. At the same cathedral there was a school that trained nuns for the correspondence and translation of books, as well as the correct handling of them. Monastic and church libraries played an important role in the formation of the Belarusian language, the national people, as well as the development of spiritual, moral upbringing and education. It was the monasteries that were the center for the spread of literacy among the population. Information about many small church libraries, if preserved, is scanty and scattered among numerous archives of neighboring states. That is why the study and preservation of the history of the development of libraries and their role in the life of the population is one of the most important tasks of modern Belarusian library science.

The origin of the prince still causes disagreement among scientists. According to some sources, Oleg was the brother-in-law of the great Novgorod prince Rurik, who founded the princely dynasty. On the day of memory of Oleg, the ancient Slavs gathered at the temples and brought demands. They remembered not only the Grand Duke, who united the Slavs, but also all the soldiers who laid down their lives for the Russian land.

Birthday of the environmental organization Greenpeace Day

Caring for groves and forests, parks and gardens is a manifestation of concern for nature and the environment. Trees and shrubs are an important element of the planet's ecosystem, providing shelter and food for many species of birds and animals. Forests saturate the air with oxygen, just like the lungs in the human body. A catastrophic decrease in the area of ​​green spaces occurs due to uncontrolled cutting down of trees, fires, and the construction of roads through the territory of natural parks. The Russian Forest Days, which take place from September 15 to 17, are designed to show concern for the environment. At this time, massive tree plantings and other measures to protect nature are carried out. Forests occupy 8 million m² of the country's territory and are the national wealth of Russia. Their area is constantly shrinking due to natural disasters, droughts and fires, illegal logging and human neglect of the plant world. Mass forest planting is the largest environmental action held in September, in which, traditionally, school-age children are primarily involved. The idea of ​​conveying to the younger generation the importance of preserving public gardens and parks belongs to Professor Mitrofan Kuzmich Tursky, who taught at the Petrine Academy. He is the author of the circular “On the planting of trees by public school students on land owned by schools,” published in 1894. The scientist wholeheartedly cared for the forestry industry of the Russian state, insisted on the prospects of selective logging and the development of forestry. After the revolution of 1917, the first mass planting of seedlings by schoolchildren, the purpose of which was “instilling in the younger generation a love of nature and tree planting,” took place in Kharkov. Over time, the baton of landscaping their hometowns and villages was picked up by children in different parts of the country. Poplars were planted along highways and in residential areas of cities, regardless of the size and density of settlement. These trees did not require any special maintenance conditions, tolerated heat and cold well, and were unpretentious to the composition of the soil and the degree of air pollution from exhaust gases and emissions from industrial enterprises. In 1928, in the Buzuluk forestry, located in the Astrakhan semi-desert, pine trees and other tree species that met the steppe growing conditions were planted. The “Stalinist Plan for the Transformation of Nature,” which was issued in the form of a resolution of the Council of Ministers of the USSR in October 1948, included the creation of forest belts and plantings throughout the country to protect crops on the fields of collective and state farms. It became common practice for Soviet children to plant trees in school alleys, parks and gardens. Russian Forest Days continue the traditions established during the reign of Nicholas II and not consigned to oblivion as the “legacy of tsarism” after the October Revolution. Lebanese writer, artist and philosopher Kahlil Gibran said: “Trees are the poems that the Earth writes in the skies.” Anyone who takes part in the all-Russian forest planting campaign, held annually on September 15-17, can add a poetic stanza of their own composition.

The Latin expression Sic Parvis Magna translates as “Great things begin with small things” or “From small to large.” The school teacher, the heroine of the book by Canadian writer and illustrator Peter Hamilton Reynolds, would most likely agree with the wisdom of this aphorism. She encouraged her timid student to draw by suggesting she start with a dot on a piece of paper. “Just make a mark and see where it takes you,” the teacher suggested. For formation and development, every child needs a fulcrum - an adult who will take part in his life. This could be a parent, teacher, immediate family member, or older friend. Peter G. Reynolds wrote a story in 2003 about the need for children to be supported by adults, to believe in themselves and their talents, calling it “The Point.” In September 2009, school teacher Terry Shea from Iowa introduced this work to children. The deep philosophical meaning and humanism of the book prompted the teacher to establish a holiday. International Dot Day is celebrated annually on September 15th. International Dot Day is a hymn to creativity, fortitude and belief in the uniqueness of oneself as an individual. The book that inspired the American educator Terry Shea to create the holiday has been translated into 20 languages. "The Point" was filmed and awarded many literary awards. On September 15, everyone who wants to take part in the holiday will go to the website of The Dot Club movement and leave their drawings there, publish poems and wishes to people who are trying their hand at creativity. A point as an abstract object and a philosophical category is a coincidence of meanings, forms, contents of concepts and judgments. In writing, this punctuation mark indicates the ending, the end of a sentence or an entire literary work. Each computer image, upon closer inspection, consists of pixels - some kind of digital atoms that are actually part of the overall picture. A point is the beginning of a segment in geometry or a detail of a future image. It was this idea that the teacher brought her student, who was embarrassed to draw, to. The girl Vashti starts small, from a point, so that after a while she can create a real sensation at the school exhibition with her drawings. At the end of the nineteenth century. A stylistic movement called “pointillism” appeared in painting. This style of writing, the founder of which is considered to be Georges Seurat, is characterized by small dotted strokes of almost pure paint without any admixture. Neo-impressionists and representatives of other artistic movements worked in the pointillism technique: Paul Signac, Henri Cross, Pablo Picasso, Camille Pissarro, Vincent van Gogh, etc. Upon close examination, their paintings represent a set of dots. Round or square strokes create the optical effect of mixing colors and the appearance of the object in the retina. International Dot Day reminds adults and children: people are unique and endowed with talent that they should not be afraid to develop and demonstrate. On September 15, everyone who is not confident in their own abilities can count on the support of loved ones, friends and complete strangers. The holiday gives a feeling of inner freedom, imparts self-confidence and gives a foothold to everyone who is ready to leave a mark in art.

On this day, Orthodox Christians honor the memory of the martyr Mammoth and his parents, who died in the name of their faith. Saint Mamontius was believed to be the patron saint of domestic animals, especially sheep and goats. By the day of Mammoth, field work was over, all that remained was to dig up the late potato harvest.
