Daula (Classical Mandaic: ࡃࡀࡅࡋࡀ), alternatively known as Šabaṭ (Classical Mandaic: ࡔࡀࡁࡀࡈ),[1] is the first month of the Mandaean calendar.[2] The month begins with Dehwa Rabba, or New Year's Day. The Feast of the Great Shishlam is celebrated on the sixth day of the month.[3]
It is the Mandaic name for the constellation Aquarius.[2] It currently corresponds to July / August in the Gregorian calendar due to a lack of a leap year in the Mandaean calendar.
