Birth(+)Fact(x)Death(-) Calendar
According to historian Raphael Volterrano "It was a revolting scene to look at that deformed, blackened corpse, prodigiously swelled, and exhaling an infectious smell; his lips and nose were covered with brown drivel, his mouth was opened very widely, and his tongue, inflated by poison,... therefore no fanatic or devotee dared to kiss his feet or hands, as custom would have required."
(18 August 1503)
There are 3381 births, 3949 deaths, 1122 murders, 498 disasters and 2084 other events about 5737 people in 6449 places until today.
Birth(+)Fact(x)Death(-) Calendar is an ongoing project since 1985 by DDV.
