Because 1900 was not a leap year, so that would have affected that period and thrown things out by a day.

Where can I find calendar dates for past years?

Old phone books (1970's and early 1980's) used to have a page of calendars that you matched a year with a number to a group of 12 month calendars. (PA Yellow Page Phone Books). Forget the phone books. Try this http://www.timeanddate.com/calendar/monthly.html


How many months of each solar year did the Roman calendar omit?

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.

Why did the 1878 calendar repeat itself four times in the 20 years between 1888 and 1908?

That is just the way the calendars do repeat. A calendar repeats either every 5, 6 or 11 years, or every 28 years in the case of a leap year. A leap year skips a day, so you don't wait 7 years for a day to come round a second time. Depending how the leap years lie in relation to a year, one day may be skipped in a 7 year period, 2 days may be skipped in a 7 year period, if there are 2 leap years in that period, or the day you are expecting to come round is itself skipped, which accounts for an 11 year gap. If you check a set of calendars for that period, or any period you will see how the gaps are normally 5, 6 or 11 years. 1878 started on a Tuesday. As part of the normal pattern, there was an 11 year gap to 1889. 1884 did start on a Tuesday but being a leap year, it had 29 days in February, which 1878 did not, so it was not a repeat of 1878. So 1889 was the next normal year to start on a Tuesday. There was then a 6 year gap to 1895, as 1892 was the only leap year in that period, causing 1 day to be skipped. 1900 was not a leap year, which slightly disrupted the normal pattern of a leap year being every 4 years. It would normally have been a 5 year gap after that, but because 1900 was not a leap year, there was another 6 year gap to 1901, as 1896 was the only leap year in that period. Then there was a 6 year gap to 1907 as 1904 was the only leap year in that period. So that is how the 4 years occurred.


Did April 2004 have the same calendar as April 1999?

Yes it did. There were two leap days between them, the 29th of February 2000 and the 29th of February 2004 causing a jump of two days, so it took just 5 years for April's calendar to repeat itself.
