The concept of measuring a year is attributed to ancient civilizations, with the earliest known calendars originating in Mesopotamia around 3000 BCE. The Egyptians also developed a calendar based on the lunar cycle, while the Mayans created an intricate calendar system that included a 365-day year. However, it was the Roman calendar, later refined by Julius Caesar into the Julian calendar, that laid the foundation for the modern Gregorian calendar we use today.
