CALIFORNIA ARTISAN 13TH ANNUAL Weird Facts & Trivia - 4
February is named for the Latin term februum, which refers to purification. Historically, mid-February was the time for Februa, a Roman purification ritual very similar to today’s practice of spring cleaning.
Much like January, which was added later than the other months to the Roman calendar, February wasn’t considered part of the calendar year until around 713 BC.
February is a special month. It’s the shortest of all the months in the calendar, and features an extra day (Feb- ruary 29th) every four years (known as the leap year).
Until the concept of a leap year was established, the number of days in February was subject to change every year.
