Calendars
Orthodox Christians celebrate Christmas on January 7. Their "old new
year" is a week later, on January 14. It is all Julius Caesar's fault
...
The Romans sometimes neglected to introduce an extra month every two
years to amortize the difference between their lunar calendar and the
natural solar year. Julius Caesar decreed that the year 46 BC should
have 445 days (some historians implausibly say: 443 days) in order to
bridge the yawning discrepancy that accumulated over the preceding
seven centuries. It was aptly titled the "Year of Confusion".
To "reset" the calendar, Julius Caesar affixed the New Year on January
1 (the day the Senate traditionally convened) and added a day or two
to a few months.
He thus gave rise to the Julian Calendar, a latter day rendition of
the Aristarchus calendar from 239 BC. After his assassination, the
month of Quintilis was renamed Julius (July) in his honor.
