Julian Calendar
Old Style
Today
The Julian calendar was introduced by Julius Caesar in 46 BCE as a reform of the Roman calendar. It established the 365-day year with a leap day every four years, but its slight overestimate of the solar year caused it to drift by about 13 days relative to the Gregorian calendar. It is still used by some Eastern Orthodox churches to calculate feast days.
