Why Was The Maya Sacred Calendar Important
Even though digital calendars have long been available, I still rely on a physical calendar to jot down my appointments and important reminders for that day. At the end of each year, I would be on the lookout for a physical table calendar and my usual inexpensive planner. The calendar that I choose would always need to have writing space. When I was still in corporate, my table calendar become a constant reference of meetings, important tasks and deadlines. After I become a full time caregiver, I still buy one each year to write down items like my mom’s medical appointments, payment due dates, etc. Visit the link to read the reasons why.

@Regrann from @chididdy26 - King Romulus The original Roman calendar was said to be invented by Romulus the first king of Rome around 753 BCE. The calendar started the year in March (Martius) and consisted of 10 months with 6 months of 30 days and 4 months of 31 days. The winter season was not assigned to any month so the calendar year only lasted 304 days with 61 days unaccounted for in the winter. Calendar of Romulus: Martius - 31 Days Aprilis - 30 Days Maius - 31 Days Iunius - 30 Days Quintilis - 31 Days Sextilis - 30 Days September - 30 Days October - 31 Days November - 30 Days December - 30 Days Adding January and February The 304-day Roman calendar didnt work for long because it didnt align with the seasons. King Numa Pompilius reformed the calendar around 700 BCE by adding the months of January (Ianuarius) and February (Februarius) to the original 10 months which increased the year's length to 354 or 355 days. The addition of January and February meant that some of the months' names no longer agreed with their position in the calendar (September - December). The month Quintilis was renamed July in honor of Julius Caesar in 44 BCE and Sextilis was renamed August in honor of Augustus in 8 BCE.
