Rishyra Johnson This is a question my daughter gets wrong everyday, at school than on you for putting this where you could The Romans named some of the months after their position in the calendar year: September means the 7th month, October the 8th, November the 9th, and December the 10th month. However, when January and February were eventually added and the beginning of the calendar year was moved to January, the position of these months no longer corresponded with the original meaning of their names.
Today, we still call the 9th month of the year September, the 7th month. The Islamic calendar , the Hebrew calendar , and the Hindu calendar also use months to divide up the year. Although the Gregorian calendar is the most commonly used calendar today, other calendars are still used in many parts of the world to calculate certain holidays and annual feasts.
Sign in. Home Calendar Months. Well, something to that effect. Some believe February once boasted 29 days and that Augustus Caesar stole a day so he could add it to August, which was named for him. Rather, February has 28 days because, to the Romans, the month was an afterthought.
In the 8th century BCE, they used the Calendar of Romulus, a month calendar that kicked the year off in March with the spring equinox and ended in December. Martius: 31 days Aprilius: 30 days Maius: 31 days Junius: 30 days Quintilis: 31 days Sextilis: 30 days September: 30 days October: 31 days November: 30 days December: 30 days.
Back then, winter was a nameless, monthless period that no one cared for much. Planters and harvesters used the calendar as a timetable. King Numa Pompilius thought that was stupid. The months were added to the end of the calendar, making February the last month of the year.
