I'm not sure how accurate that is, calenders are pretty important for being able to survive, and surely they need to figure "do we have enough food to last the rest of this season".
Maybe they have different math for that or there was an issue with translation.
These dudes lived in the tropics and lived off the fat of the land. They didn't need to worry about seasons in the way more northern/southern hemisphere people do.
Totally agree though. Maths, astrology, water sources, farming. All very important to sustain a civilisation.
