It consisted of ten <a href="/wiki/Month" title="Month">months</a>, beginning in spring with March and leaving winter as an unassigned span of days before the next year. These months each had 30 or 31 <a href="/wiki/Day" title="Day">days</a> and ran for 38 <a href="/wiki/Nundinal_cycles" class="mw-redirect" title="Nundinal cycles">nundinal cycles</a>, each forming a kind of eight-day <a href="/wiki/Week" title="Week">week</a>—nine days <a href="/wiki/Inclusive_counting" class="mw-redirect" title="Inclusive counting">counted inclusively in the Roman manner</a>—and ending with religious rituals and a <a href="/wiki/Roman_commerce" title="Roman commerce">public market</a>. This fixed calendar bore traces of its origin as an <a href="/wiki/Observational_calendar" class="mw-redirect" title="Observational calendar">observational</a> <a href="/wiki/Lunar_calendar" title="Lunar calendar">lunar one</a>. In particular, the most important days of each month—its <a href="/wiki/Kalends" class="mw-redirect" title="Kalends">kalends</a>, <a href="/wiki/Nones_(calendar)" class="mw-redirect" title="Nones (calendar)">nones</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Ides_(calendar)" class="mw-redirect" title="Ides (calendar)">ides</a>—seem to have derived from the <a href="/wiki/New_moon" title="New moon">new moon</a>, the <a href="/wiki/First-quarter_moon" class="mw-redirect" title="First-quarter moon">first-quarter moon</a>, and the <a href="/wiki/Full_moon" title="Full moon">full moon</a> respectively. To a late date, the <a href="/wiki/College_of_Pontiffs" title="College of Pontiffs">College of Pontiffs</a> formally proclaimed each of these days on the <a href="/wiki/Capitoline_Hill" title="Capitoline Hill">Capitoline Hill</a> and Roman dating counted down inclusively towards the next such day in any month. (For example, the year-end festival of <a href="/wiki/Terminalia_(festival)" title="Terminalia (festival)">Terminalia</a> on 23<span class="nowrap">&#160;</span>February was called <span title="Latin-language text"><i lang="la">VII. <a href="https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Kal." class="extiw" title="wikt:Kal.">Kal.</a> <a href="https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Mart." class="extiw" title="wikt:Mart.">Mart.</a></i></span>, the 6th day before the March kalends.) </p><p>Romulus's successor <a href="/wiki/Numa_Pompilius" title="Numa Pompilius">Numa Pompilius</a> was then usually credited with a <a href="#Numa">revised calendar</a> that divided winter between the two months of <a href="/wiki/Ianuarius" title="Ianuarius">January</a> and <a href="/wiki/Februarius" title="Februarius">February</a>, shortened most other months accordingly, and brought everything into rough alignment with the <a href="/wiki/Solar_year" class="mw-redirect" title="Solar year">solar year</a> by some system of <a href="/wiki/Intercalation_(timekeeping)" title="Intercalation (timekeeping)">intercalation</a>. This is a typical element of <a href="/wiki/Lunisolar_calendar" title="Lunisolar calendar">lunisolar calendars</a> and was necessary to keep the <a href="/wiki/Ancient_Roman_religion" class="mw-redirect" title="Ancient Roman religion">Roman religious</a> <a href="/wiki/Roman_festivals" title="Roman festivals">festivals</a> and other activities in their proper <a href="/wiki/Season" title="Season">seasons</a>. </p><p>Modern historians dispute various points of this account. It is possible the original calendar was agriculturally based, observational of the seasons and stars rather the moon, with ten months of varying length filling the entire year. If this ever existed, it would have changed to the lunisolar system later credited to Numa during the kingdom or <a href="/wiki/Early_Republic" class="mw-redirect" title="Early Republic">early Republic</a> under the influence of the <a href="/wiki/Etruscan_culture" class="mw-redirect" title="Etruscan culture">Etruscans</a> and of <a href="/wiki/Pythagoreans" class="mw-redirect" title="Pythagoreans">Pythagorean</a> <a href="/wiki/Magna_Graeca" class="mw-redirect" title="Magna Graeca">Southern Italian Greeks</a>. After the <a href="/wiki/Overthrow_of_the_Roman_monarchy" title="Overthrow of the Roman monarchy">establishment of the Republic</a>, <a href="/wiki/Year" title="Year">years</a> <a href="/wiki/Calendar_epoch" class="mw-redirect" title="Calendar epoch">began to be dated</a> by <a href="/wiki/Roman_consul" title="Roman consul">consulships</a> but the calendar and its rituals were otherwise very conservatively maintained until the <a href="/wiki/Late_Republic" class="mw-redirect" title="Late Republic">Late Republic</a>. Even when the nundinal cycles had completely departed from correlation with the moon's phases, a <a href="/wiki/Pontifex_minor" class="mw-redirect" title="Pontifex minor">pontiff</a> was obliged to meet the <a href="/wiki/Rex_sacrorum" class="mw-redirect" title="Rex sacrorum">sacred king</a>, to claim that he had observed the new moon, and to offer a sacrifice to <a href="/wiki/Juno_(goddess)" class="mw-redirect" title="Juno (goddess)">Juno</a> to solemnize each kalends. </p><p>It is clear that, for a variety of reasons, the intercalation necessary for the system's accuracy was not always observed.

Fifty days, says Censorinus, were added to the calendar and a day taken from each month of thirty days to provide for the two winter months: Januarius (January) and Februarius (February), both of which had 28 days (The Natal Day, XX). This was a lunar year of 354 days but, because of the Roman superstition about even numbers, an additional day was added to January to make the calendar 355 days long. Auspiciously, each month now had an odd number of days: Martius (March), Maius (May), Quinctilis (July), and October continued to have 31; the other months, 29, except for February, which had 28 days. Considered unlucky, it was devoted to rites of purification (februa) and expiation appropriate to the last month of the year.

correspondence between months and seasons due to the excess of one day of the Roman average year over the tropical year, the insertion of the intercalary month was modified according to the scheme: common year (355 days), leap year with 23-day February followed by 27-day Mercedonius (377 days), common year, leap year with 23-day February followed by 28-day Mercedonius (378 days), and so on for the first 16 years of a 24-year cycle. In the last 8 years, the intercalation took place with the month of Mercedonius only 27 days, except the last intercalation which did not happen. Hence, there would be a typical common year followed by a leap year of 377 days for the next 6 years and the remaining 2 years would sequentially be common years.

For example, March 19 was expressed as "the 14th day before the April Kalends" (<i><span title="Latin-language text"><i lang="la">a.d. XIV Kal. Apr.</i></span></i>), without a mention of March itself. The day after a kalends, nones, or ides was also often expressed as the "day after" (<i><span title="Latin-language text"><i lang="la">postridie</i></span></i>) owing to their special status as particularly unlucky "black days". </p><p>The anomalous status of the new 31-day months under the Julian calendar was an effect of Caesar's desire to avoid affecting the <a href="/wiki/Roman_festivals" title="Roman festivals">festivals</a> tied to the nones and ides of various months. However, because the dates at the ends of the month all counted forward to the next kalends, they were all shifted by one or two days by the change. This created confusion with regard to certain anniversaries. For instance, <a href="/wiki/Augustus" title="Augustus">Augustus</a>'s birthday on the 23rd<span class="nowrap">&#160;</span>day of September was <i><span title="Latin-language text"><i lang="la">a.d. VIII Kal. Oct.</i></span></i> in the old calendar but <i><span title="Latin-language text"><i lang="la">a.d. IX Kal. Oct.</i></span></i> under the new system.

The Roman solution to this problem was to periodically lengthen the calendar by adding extra days <i>within</i> February. February was broken into two parts, each with an odd number of days. The first part ended with the Terminalia on the 23rd (<i><span title="Latin-language text"><i lang="la">a.d. VII Kal. Mart.</i></span></i>), which was considered the end of the religious year; the five remaining days beginning with the <a href="/wiki/Regifugium" title="Regifugium">Regifugium</a> on the 24th (<i><span title="Latin-language text"><i lang="la">a.d. VI Kal. Mart.</i></span></i>) formed the second part; and the intercalary month <a href="/wiki/Mercedonius" title="Mercedonius">Mercedonius</a> was inserted between them. In such years, the days between the ides and the Regifugium were counted down to either the Intercalary Kalends or to the Terminalia. The intercalary month counted down to nones and ides on its 5th and 13th day in the manner of the other short months.

The position of Pontifex Maximus was not a full-time job; it was held by a member of the Roman elite, who would almost invariably be involved in the machinations of Roman politics. Because the term of office of elected <a href="/wiki/Magistratus_ordinarii_/_extraordinarii" class="mw-redirect" title="Magistratus ordinarii / extraordinarii">Roman magistrates</a> was defined in terms of a Roman calendar year, a Pontifex Maximus had an incentive to lengthen a year in which he or his allies were in power or shorten a year in which his political opponents held office. </p><p>Although there are many stories to interpret the intercalation, a period of <span class="nowrap">22 or 23 days</span> is always <style data-mw-deduplicate="TemplateStyles:r1154941027">.mw-parser-output .frac{white-space:nowrap}.mw-parser-output .frac .num,.mw-parser-output .frac .den{font-size:80%;line-height:0;vertical-align:super}.mw-parser-output .frac .den{vertical-align:sub}.mw-parser-output .sr-only{border:0;clip:rect(0,0,0,0);clip-path:polygon(0px 0px,0px 0px,0px 0px);height:1px;margin:-1px;overflow:hidden;padding:0;position:absolute;width:1px}</style><span class="frac"><span class="num">1</span>&#8260;<span class="den">4</span></span><span class="nowrap">&#160;</span>synodic month short.
