    But before that, there was and is #Akitu, the #Assyrian and #Babylonian equinox celebration (which also seems to have a counterpart in #Sumer). Modern #Assyrians celebrate Akitu on 1 April to coïncide with the beginning of a Gregorian month, but in ancient times, it was on the day of the actual equinox. My understanding is that the civil year officially began on the day of the new moon close to the equinox, but I might be wrong about that.
