One way to document the start of the week is to find calendars and then
see how they mark the weeks. You can then document it by taking 
pictures of  each calendar. EG yearly calendars are often given out
for free by banks in my country, and book sellers also sell calendars, which 
you could probably get to make a photo of. 

Also , how are your weeks numbered? This is also info available
in calendars. In my country week numbers are very much used.
Most countries use ISO 8601, where the week start on a Monday. 
It is mostly English and arabic speaking countries that do otherwise.

best regards
