when were july and august added to the calendar
Julian calendar The Romans later renamed months after Julius Caesar and Augustus, renaming Quintilis as "Iulius" (July)[8] in 44 BC and Sextilis as "Augustus" (August) in 8 BC. Quintilis was renamed to honour Caesar because it was the month of his birth.[68] According to a senatus consultum quoted by Macrobius, Sextilis was renamed to honour Augustus because several of the most significant events in his rise to power, culminating in the fall of Alexandria, occurred in that month.[69]
