Who named julian calendar after the solar calendar?
At that time, the Romans thought odd numbers were auspicious, so they defined odd months as big months with 365,438+0 days per month, and even months as small months with 30 days per month. All lucky months have an extra day so that luck can last, but in this way, a year is 366 days. Where can this day be reduced? At that time, the death penalty in ancient Rome was to be executed in February, so this unlucky February was one day less, and February became 29 days. When Emperor Augustus arrived, his birthday was in August. He thought about how he was born by miscarriage, so he ordered that two months after August be designated as big months and one month as abortion to show the difference brought by birth. There were only 30 days in August, which became 3 1 day, a day less than other months, so there was a day less from February, and there were only 28 days in February. Julian calendar is a solar calendar named after Caesar, which is more in line with the changes of solar terms and is widely welcomed by people. But it is not very accurate, because its year is 365 days. In fact, the real year is 365.25-0.0078 days instead of 365 days. By 1582, this date will exceed 10 days. So Pope Gregory promulgated a new reform, and julian calendar after the reform was called the Gregorian calendar. He stipulated that leap year is only a year divisible by 400 every hundred years, and the Gregorian calendar we adopt today is the Gregorian calendar.
