Discover the fascinating origins of something we rely on every day: the calendar! Thousands of years ago, the ingenious Egyptians created the first 365-day calendar to manage the life-giving cycles of the Nile River. By observing the star Sirius, they predicted the floods that enriched their lands. This led to a calendar divided into three essential seasons: Inundation, Emergence, and Harvest, with 12 months of 30 days each. Amazingly, they also dedicated five additional days to honor their gods. This innovative system not only revolutionized how they managed resources but also set the groundwork for future civilizations. Our modern calendar still echoes this ancient brilliance, a true testament to human creativity and adaptation.
