The Babylonian new year celebration lasted for eleven days. Each day had its own particular mode of celebration, but it is safe to say that modern New Year's Eve festivities pale in comparison.
The Romans continued to observe the new year in late March, but their calendar was continually tampered with by various emperors so that the calendar soon became out of synchronization with the sun.
In order to set the calendar right, the Roman senate, in 153 BC, declared January 1 to be the beginning of the new year. But tampering continued until Julius Caesar, in 46 BC, established what has come to be known as the Julian Calendar. It again established January 1 as the new year. But in order to synchronize the calendar with the sun, Caesar had to let the previous year drag on for 445 days.

巴比伦人的新年长达十一天.每天都有不同的庆祝方式,当代的新年对照之下难免相形见绌.
罗马人把三月底欢度新年的习俗延续下来.然而他们的历法几经历代帝王染指,很快便不再与太阳的运转同步.
为矫正历法起见,罗马参议员于公元前153年宣布元月一日为新年之始.但染指历法的事情并未杜绝.后来,凯撒于公元前46年,颁布了一套历法,被后人称为裘利斯历.这部历法再度把元月一日定为新年.但为了使这部历法与太阳的运转相同步,凯撒不得不把之前的一年延长到445天.
