Best Answer

In 1336BC, the Pemolonion civilization was using the old 14-day week. Renown Pemolonion leader Agaphastus, who was facing an impending peasant revolt, cut the week in half resulting in twice the number of weekends. Agaphastus went on to be one of the most popular rulers of ancient times. A statue in his honor still stands on the grounds of an old Persian temple which now houses a laundromat.
