  • Calendars, Coins, and Comets Patrice L
    Calendars, Coins, and Comets Patrice L. Jeppson, 2007 Have you ever walked up to a complete stranger and asked, “Pardon me, but do you know what day it is today”? When you pay your bills do you glance at your watch or maybe at the wall before filling in that little line next to the word “date”? When setting up a dental appointment or a business meeting, do you consult your smart phone? You more than likely do because every day we assign a multiple of our actions to a system of standardized, fixed, divisions of time known as the calendar. We don’t usually give a lot of thought to this practice, but it happens to be tremendously convenient for helping us prevent mistakes and disputes as we reckon time in advance. While we all occasionally slip up and still forget to maybe pick up a kid after band practice or meet a neighbor for lunch, we all use calendars to help us structure our lives. When did this start to happen? We know that since ancient times people have marked time with recurring natural phenomena such as a seasonal rainfall, cycles of the moon, or the solstice and equinox. However, these general cycles seem far removed from the busy schedules we track in modern life. How did the calendar as we now know it come to be part of our everyday life experience? An artifact excavated at Independence National Historical Park is showing us how our forbearers in colonial America kept track of dates. The object in question comes from a colonial- era neighborhood that now lies buried beneath the streets of the modern city of Philadelphia.
