October is the tenth month of the year in the Julian and Gregorian Calendars and the sixth month to have the length of 31 days. The eighth month in the old Roman calendar, October retained its name (from the ôctō meaning "eight") after January and February were inserted into the calendar that had originally been created by the Romans. In Ancient , one of three Mundus patet would take place on October 5, Meditrinalia October 11, on October 12, on October 15, and on October 19. These dates do not correspond to the modern Gregorian calendar. Among the Anglo-Saxons, it was known as Winterfylleth, because at this full moon (fylleth) winter was supposed to begin. October is commonly associated with the season of autumn, and the colours of October, like orange and brown in the Northern hemisphere and spring in the Southern hemisphere, where it is the seasonal equivalent to April in the Northern hemisphere and vice versa.
