The first true (M01-M05) atlas in the modern sense was published on 22 May 1570.

I love the Alt-1, Alt-O, Alt-P, and Alt-U Soft Keys!! They definitely make transcribing go much easier and faster (and as Michael mentioned, more accurately).

On May the 1st the festival of Thrimilci is held, it is the beginning of Summer.
Thrimilci is a festival filled with joy and contentment, and also fertility, much like Ostara. However, most of the Northern World is finally escaping from the snow at this time.
