C. 4 of Varro B. C. 750 to U. C. 1108 A. D. 35 It is necessary however to premise to this review that in some cases the Roman date of the eclipse has been assigned, along with the fact of it, in terms of the calendar for the time being; and this can be compared at once with the Julian date of the same natural phenomenon, at the same point of time, as either obtained by calculation for ourselves, or taken from the Tables of eclipses already calculated. In such cases the confirmation of our calendar by this species of testimony is complete. The Julian date thus obtained by calculation or taken from the Tables, and the Roman date assigned by our calendar in terms of the Julian calendar, are always the same.
