In ancient times, March was the first month of the year. It was the beginning of autumn season. The word march is derived from Roman God Mars. September, October and November became third, fourth and fifth respectively. Later January and February added as eleventh and twelfth respectively. The word February means ‘purgation’. This word was derived from Latin. February was added as last thus it added for purification of evil and this purification helped to welcome fresh autumn season. From 153B.C January have been changed as first month. This word was derived from God Janus. Still I am searching for why it is changed. I will post the reason after I got needed information.
Happy New Year to all….. Thank you for your kind support and this blog is entering into second year. Thank you for your kind support and continuous encouragement.
