Thank you Gill for that great lesson. I got nine out of 10. I forgot Juno wasn’t an emperor but a goddess.
As a matter of fact, I wondered why october wasn’t the 8th month. With you, I got the explanation.
Good weekend. See you soon for mastering my english. Marie-Claude

Dear Gill,
actually there is a mistake in the clip. March was the first month of the year in the old Roman calendar adopted by Romulus, but it was Julius Cesar who changed the old Roman calendar and estabilished that there are 12 months in a year (the old Roman calendar had 10 months) and that the first month i January. In fact before the Gregorian calendar (that fixed a problem related to leap years) there was the Julian calendar (which for istance is still used by the Russian church).

Osrevinu

And there is another mistake, it’s true that Cesar was born in July but 44BC is the year of his death, 15th March 44 BC. He was born in 101/100 BC.

Osrevinu

Wow! It’s amazing all your knowledge, of course it’s a part of your culture because I suppose you are Italian.
Sorry if my English is bad.

BrendaLety

yes, and that’s why one of the month was called by the name of Julius

NickolasYablokov

The another fact is that in ancient Russia the first month of the year was March despite of using Julian calendar where January was the first one. BTW, this is another mistake of the video))))

NickolasYablokov

Very interesting, I don’t known the origin of their names.

thanks
