The 'Ides' referred to the 15th day of the months of March, May, July, and October in the Roman calendar. The month of Marchwas named after Mars, the god of war. And so the 15th day was considered a festive time to dedicate activities in his honor. For example, a military parade was often held.
Perhaps the most famous historic occurrence on that day was the assassination of Gaius Julius Caesar [July 13, 100 B.C. - March 15, 44 B.C.]. According to revered Greek historian and biographer Plutarch, Caesar was warned prior to the 15th by a seer to "Beware the Ides of March." Moments before his death Caesar mocked the seer saying, "Well, the Ides are come." to which the seer replied "Aye, they are come, but they are not gone." William Shakespeare [baptized April 26, 1564-April 23, 1616] wrote a play on the event.
I think you mean the Ides of March. The Ides were a date in the Roman calendar. Julius Caesar was assassinated on the Ides of March or March 15th.
