Roman and Greek authors agree that Janus (January) was exclusively a Roman God. January is the first month of the year in the Julian and Gregorian calendars. January is named after the Latin name for door, since January is the door of the New Year. Janus was the God of beginnings and transitions in Roman mythology.
