WHAT IS THE HISTORY OF APRIL?

April is the fourth month of the year in the Gregorian calendar and the Julian calendar. It was the second month of the earliest Roman calendar before Ianuarius and Februarius were added by King Numa Pompilius about 700 BC.

It became the fourth month of the calendar year (the year when twelve months are displayed in order) during the time of the decemvirs about 450 BC when it also was given 29 days. The 30th day was added during the reform of the calendar undertaken by Julius Caesar in the mid-40s BC, which produced the Julian calendar.  April’s name is derived from the Latin word aperit, which means to open.

The traditional etymology is from the verb aperire, “to open”, in allusion to its being the season when trees and flowers begin to “open”, which is supported by comparison with the modern Greek use of άνοιξη (ánixi) (opening) for spring. Since some of the Roman months were named in honor of divinities, and as April was sacred to the goddess Venus, her Veneralia being held on the first day, it has been suggested that Aprilis was originally her month Aphrilis, from her equivalent Greek goddess name Aphrodite (Aphros), or from the Etruscan name Apru.

On between April 16 and April 26 each year, the Lyrids meteor shower appears, with the peak generally occurring on April 22. Eta Aquariids meteor shower also appears in April from about April 21 to about May 20 each year with peak activity on or around May 6.
