For many years, up to the time of Julius Caesar the year had ten months - the remains of that
today are our last four months, which are the 9th, 10th. 11th. and 12th months, but are named in Latin September (seventh month) October (eighth month), etc. A month was added to honor Julius Caesar (July) by taking a few days from all the other months. Not to be overshadowed, August Caesar wanted the same thing (August). So it comes down to us as 12 months.
