The first month of the early Roman calendar, Martius (March), was the first month in the early Roman calendar, which only had ten months, was March.

The calendar was extended to 12 months by King Pompilius (named for Janus, the pagan god of gates, doors, and beginnings) and Februarius (named for Janus, the pagan god of gates, doors, and beginnings) and Februarius, which later extended the calendar to 12 months. A majority of the world follows today's Julius Caesar who created the Julian calendar, which most closely matches the Gregorian calendar.

Romans made sacrifices to Janus, giving gifts, and general revelry in the first day of the year in the appropriately named month of January. With his two faces, the god Janus was able to look back in the past and forward to the future.
