Do we call Native Americans losers? Maybe you do. Just because a society and culture is defeated by a stronger foe, does that make them losers confined to a historical dust-bin? <BR/><BR/>Columbus crash-landed and ignorantly thought he was in India. The Roman Empire fell, so I guess they were losers as well.

It's my understanding that there was a ten month calendar, where October was the 8th month, November the ninth (nova=9) and December the 10th month (deca=10).
