History of New Year

The first day of the year has been celebrated since ancient times. The earliest recorded New Year’s celebration was in Mesopotamia in 2000 BCE. The Babylonians began their year with the first new moon after the vernal equinox and celebrated with an eleven-day festival called Akitu. The Persians continued the tradition and celebrated their new year on the vernal equinox. However, The Romans observed the new year on March 1.

Julius Caesar developed the Julian calendar in 46 B.C., marking the beginning of the New Year on January 1. As a result, the old lunar-based Roman calendar was rendered outdated. But New Year’s Eve falls on December 31 based on the Gregorian calendar.
