We use the Roman calender and the months and religious festivals that we still celebrate are in honour of their gods. The gods themselves represent natural forces and primitive people believed that they had to worship and sacrifice in order to ensure that crops wouldn't fail and so on.

In days gone by, the first day of the year was spring -- March. So February -being the last month of the year - got whatever days were left over. grumble


I prefer my previous rationale of course bigsmile
