About this listen

This is a bit of a sequel to our 6th episode! Then we asked “How did the days of the week get their names” Now we’re asking How Did The Months Get Their Names. For a long long time a long long time ago the Romans would march in March and finish the year in December totaling 304 days in the year. So what happened during those other 61 days? Nothing. It was just this void of time passing. Fun fact: September, October, November, and December have always been named that, but they were in fact the 7th, 8th, 9th, and 10th months. January and February came later for a couple different reasons. We get into it!
