March is:
March origin (from Wikipedia):
'The name of March comes from Latin Martius, the first month of the earliest
Roman calendar. It was named for Mars, the Roman god of war who was also
regarded as a guardian of agriculture and an ancestor of the Roman people
through his sons Romulus and Remus.
'
March
'is the third month of the year in both the Julian and Gregorian calendars.
It is one of seven months that are 31 days long. In the Northern Hemisphere,
the meteorological beginning of spring occurs on the first day of March.
The March equinox on the 20th or 21st marks the astronomical beginning of
spring in the Northern Hemisphere and the beginning of autumn in the
Southern Hemisphere, where September is the seasonal equivalent of the
Northern Hemisphere's March.
