Julius Caesar and Augustus did not add two months to the year named after them. The original calendar established by Romulus, the first king of Rome, in the mid-8th century (the Romulean calendar) had ten months. Numa Pompilius, the second king of Rome, reformed the calendar in the late 8th or early 7th century BC. He added two months. It is called by historians the calendar of Numa). The names of the two months named after Julius Caesar and Augustus in the Julian calendar replaced previous names. This was done for their glory. It was also done within the framework of a calendar reform. Julius Caesar reformed the Roman calendar, switching from a lunar one to a solar one.
