Julian

The Roman calendar

The calendar changed after the Roman Empire took over by adding two new months to the original ten months. the roman calendar had ten months made by the roman kings called, Martius, Aprilis, Maius, Iunius, Quintilis, Sextilis, September, October, November, and December. After the monarchy the calendar changed two months were added Ianarius and febuarius. later the names were changed even more.

it is believed that Julius named august and that July was named after Julius. this theory had evidence by name and the fact that they were Julian calendars which means belonging to Julius. it is still not certain but the chances that it is a coincidence are very unlikely.

After the kings Julius introduced the Julian calendar (the writer of this page is named Julian). The original roman calendar was thought to be a lunar calendar, but this was only a theory. The changes happened in 450 B.C. these changes were untouched until 301 B.C due to astrological events. every year divisible by four had an extra day to the surprisingly short February which only had 28 days. Romans considered months with 29 days hallow and months with 30 or more solid.
