augustus1 Pillar of the Community United States 549 Posts	Posted 03/15/2014 7:55 pm March 15 is the Ides of March. Julius Caesar was assassinated on this date, 44 BC. The coin above, Sear 1407, was struck mid-January to early February that same year. Edited by augustus1 03/15/2014 8:05 pm Report this Post to the Staff

FVRIVS RVFVS Pillar of the Community United States 3446 Posts	Posted 03/16/2014 08:29 am Shouldn't we add 13 days to our own date to bring it 'back' into alignment with the calendar of Julius ? Anniversaries can sometimes be tricky issues depending who is doing the counting ! I somehow think 'Great Caesars ghost' will likely walk through the forum on the anniversary based on his own method of counting time. My own wife sometimes gets confused over her own age ! Being from Albania she had been accustomed to thinking that the date which follows 365 days after her birth was her second birthday. But one of several curious customs which lead me to believe the 'culture' to be positively antediluvian ! And that thing with the garlic ........ well enough said Report this Post to the Staff
