The seven kings of Rome, traditionally recognized, are Romulus, Numa Pompilius, Ancus Marcius, Tarquin the Elder, Servius Tullius, and Tarquin the Proud. Romulus, the legendary founder, established the Roman state, while Numa Pompilius is credited with its religious and legal foundations. Ancus Marcius expanded Rome's territory, and the Tarquin kings, particularly Tarquin the Proud, were known for their tyranny, leading to the establishment of the Roman Republic after his overthrow. Each king contributed to Rome's political, religious, and military development during its early history.
The Romans had three calendars over the 1,200 years of their history. Only the first one, the Romulean calendar created by Romulus, Rome's first king, had 10 months and this lasted only for about 40 years. The second king of Rome, Numa Pompilius, reformed the calendar and created one with 12 months (the calendar of Numa). The Julian calendar, created by Julius Caesar, also had 12 months. Caesar also switched from a lunar to a solar calendar.
Rome had a monarchy for only 244 years (753-509 B.C) of the 1,200 years of her history. After that it had a republic for 482 years (509-27B.C.) and rule be emperors (27 B.C.-476 A.D.). During the monarchy there were seven kings: Romulus, Numa Pompilius, Tullus Hostilius, Ancus Marcius, Tarquinius Priscus. Servius Tullius and Tarquinius Superbus.
The Latin phrase 'Fabulae Romanae: Numa Pompilius' translates as Roman Stories: Numa Pompilius. Numa Pompilius [753 B.C.-673 B.C.] was the second King of Rome, and began his reign in 717 B.C. He founded the Temple of Vesta, and appointed the first two Vestal Virgins, or priestesses.

The month of January was added to the calendar by the Roman king Numa Pompilius around 713 BC as part of his reform of the Roman calendar. Initially, the Roman calendar consisted of ten months, with the year starting in March. Numa Pompilius added January and February to align the calendar more closely with the lunar year, making January the first month of the year. This change was later adopted in the Julian calendar established by Julius Caesar in 45 BC.
