GOOD WEB LINKS

http://www.12x30.net/calends.html
Bill Hollon’s Web site on calendars includes a substantial discussion of the Calends, Nones, and Ides, with graphics and footnotes.
http://webexhibits.org/calendars/calendar-roman.html
Web Exhibits answers nine questions about the Roman calendar, two of which have to do with the Ides: What were the Roman weekdays? and Beware the Ides of March! If you recognize some of Bill Hollon’s material, it’s because he’s given Web Exhibits permission to use his text, but the format and graphics are different.

That’s 16 zeroes! This link will take you fairly close to Claus Tondering’s discussion of Kalends, Nones, and Ides. You’ll have to scroll through his answer to Frequently Asked Question number 2.8 (What is the Roman calendar?) to get to number 2.8.1: How did the Romans number days?
