Julian calendar. The Julian calendar is a solar calendar of 365 days in every year with an additional leap day every fourth year (without exception).

The positivist calendar was a calendar reform proposal by Auguste Comte (1798–1857) in 1849. Revising the earlier work of Marco Mastrofini, or an even earlier proposal by "Hirossa Ap-Iccim" ( Hugh Jones ), Comte developed a solar calendar with 13 months of 28 days, and an additional festival day commemorating the dead, totalling 365 days.
