Initially, there were no months after December, and the period of winter was not part of any month. When the calendar changed to have the year starting after December, they named January after the god of transitions.
- eru 3y agoDo you have sources for that? The story I am familiar with had something like 12 months of 30 days each (or so), so that there were only about 5 (or 6) days without a month. What you write sounds like they had almost a sixth of the year (after December to before March) not allocated to any months?
