Let’s talk a bit about the Julian Calendar:
The format of the Julian date is a combination of year and a relative day number within the year called the ordinal date.
Julius Caesar introduced this calendar in 450 BC, and the Romans used it.
The Gregorian calendar replaced the Julian calendar in the 16th century.
Astronomers use Julian dates to keep track of time, and ancient artifact age calculations are also based on Julian dates.
Not only that, nearly all Eastern Orthodox churches use Julian dates to calculate the dates of movable feasts.
