What was the first month in the ancient Roman calendar?
February
March
November
December
The original Roman calendar consisted of ten months, with the year beginning in March and ending in December. As March brought the first day of spring with the vernal equinox, it was considered the start of new beginnings. March became the third month when January and February, which were added to the end of the Roman calendar around 700 BCE, instead became the first and second months around 450 BCE. In 45 BCE, Julius Caesar created the Julian calendar, which served as the precursor to the modern Gregorian calendar we use today.
The correct answer is March.
