History of Time keeping and Calendars

The word “calendar” doesn't only refer to timekeeping but also physical representations like printed date charts. Humans have used timekeeping methods since the Neolithic era. Days were counted by cycles of light and darkness. 

Solar year controls the seasonal patterns that are important for agriculture and survival. Lunar year, which is important in different religions and tribes and can easily be counted. 

As there are different types of situations and conditions, there are different types of calendars. The solar calendars, for example the ancient Egyptian and modern Gregorian calendars are solely based on the orbit around the sun.

The Gregorian calendar is the most used and current default calendar all over the world. This calendar uses 36.24 days per year and adds one extra day in the calendar in the leap years. On the other hand, the lunar calendars like the Islamic calendars follow the moon and use 29 or 30 days as a month.

What Calendar Do We Use?

There are lots of calendars (Chinese, Persian, Mayan, Egyptian etc.) in the world, about 40 calendars. But mostly 3 main calendars are used all around the world. Solar, lunar and solilunar or lunisolar.

Our date calculator is based on the Gregorian calendar which contains 365 days and adds 1 day to the calendar every 4 years as in leap years. This is a solar calendar named after Pope Gregory XIII. The Gregorian calendar replaced the Julian calendar which was based on the Islamic ones. 

Nowadays, most of the countries use the Gregorian calendar, some do not use this though. It is the civil calendar meaning, it is used in administration, civil or in official works.
