Julian calender
The Roman calendar was not only inaccurate but also manipulated for political purposes with intercalations not occurring systematically. Julius Caesar replaced this calendar with a one based on the Egyptian calendar, which was regulated by the sun. He set the length of the year to 365.25 days by adding an intercalary day at the end of February every fourth year. The Julian calendar started on 1st January 45 BC and it remained the predominant calendar in most of Europe. -
