The Roman calendar was not difficult to read, but it was different from ours and encompassed different measurements of time. For example, they did not name the days of the week and they did not have a week as we know it. The very basic points of a Roman calendar are 1) the Kalends, which is the first day of any month. 2)The nones, which was the 7h of the 31 day months and the 5th of the others. The Ides, which was the 15th of the 31 day months and the 13th of the others. It would take a volume to explain the Roman calendar in its entirety.
