"I believe the Incas did."
The above answer is wrong.
I got the same question in my Punjab MET-2010 sample paper and I've been given the following options:
(1) The Nile Valley
(2) The Indus Valley
(3) The Euphrates Valley
(4) The Yangtze Valley
Even I want to know the correct answer.

The civil version of the Julian calendar is based on the su, and so it is solar. However, the Julian calendar includes an undated lunar calendar that allows it to calculate when Easter is, so it is lunisolar.
Julius Caesar replaced the lunar Roman calendar with the solar Julian calendar in 46 BCE. It took effect beginning in 45 BCE.

The United States uses the Gregorian calendar, which is a solar calendar.

A solar calendar is a type of calendar that is based on the position of the Earth in relation to the sun. This means that the calendar is organized around the length of the solar year, which is the time it takes for the Earth to complete one orbit around the sun. Solar calendars are used to keep track of the seasons and to organize events and appointments throughout the year. Some examples of solar calendars include the Gregorian Calendar, the Julian Calendar, and the Hindu Calendar. The solar calendar is the most widely used calendar system in the world and is the standard for civil and commercial purposes.
YES.the incas had a solar and lunar calendar
The Gregorian Calendar is solar and the Hebrew Calendar is lunisolar.
A purely solar calendar, such as the Gregorian calendar that is commonly used, has no connection to the cycles of the Moon, and is tied strictly to the solar year. Months are pretty much arbitrary. In a lunar calendar, the month always begins at the new moon, and dates always occur on the same phase of the Moon. A purely lunar calendar (such as the Islamic calendar) does not synchronize with the solar year at all. A luni-solar calendar such as the Hebrew calendar is primarily tied to the Moon, but also adds "leap months" periodically to maintain a rough match with the solar year.
A solar calendar follow the phases of the sun which gives us equinoxes and solstices whereas a lunar calendar follows the phases of the moon and it's cycles.

Julius Caesar improved the calendar by revising it and turning the old lunar calendar into a solar calendar. The solar calendar more accurately reflects the seasons. Pope Gregory made a few minor changes to Caesar's basic calendar and the Gregorian calendar is what we use today. However the Julian calendar, the one which Caesar produced, is still used in some instances today, especially religious ones.
The Hebrew calendar is a lunar and solar calendar, meaning its months follow the moon's cycle around the world, whereas the secular calendar is only a solar calendar which follows the sun.
