Original Note:
In October 1582, an extraordinary and unprecedented event took place: 10 days were erased from the calendar. This event was a result of the adoption of the Gregorian calendar, which replaced the Julian calendar that had been in use since 45 BCE. https://www.upworthy.com/why-the-calendar-skipped-from-october-4th-to-the-15th-in-1582
