Origin - Proposed Name Name Day

There was a time in early human history when the days were not given a name! The reason is very simple. Humans do not find a week.
At that time, the only division of time is the moon, and there are too many days in a month to be named individually. But when humans began to build cities, they want to have a special day to trade, a market day. Sometimes the days the market is set every tenth day, sometimes every day of the seventh or every fifth day The Babylonians decided on the market should fall on the seventh day. On this day they do not work, but met to trade and conduct religious ceremonies.
The Jews followed their example, but the seventh day to keperluaan specialize religious. Thus arose Sunday. It was the day between market days. The Jews gave the name for each day of the seventh day, but it is a matter of fact after the Sabbath (ie Saturday). For example, on Wednesday called the fourth day (four days after the day Saturday).
When the Egyptians use the week of seven days they called these days by the name of the five planets, the sun and moon. The Romans used Egyptian names for their day of the week: the day the Sun, Moon Day, Mars Day, the day the planet Mercury, the planet Jupiter today, the day the planet Venus, and Saturn day.

We obtained the names of the day instead of the Romans but from bangasa Anglo-Saxon, who called most of the day to day according to their own gods, which is roughly equal to the gods of the Romans. Cloudy day becomes 'Sunnandaeg', or Sunday (Sunday). Day month is called 'Monandaeg', or Monday (Monday). Tiw's Day became the day of Mars, the god of war. It became 'Tiwesdaeg', or Tuesday (Tuesday). Instead of the name of Mercury, the god Woden name given to Thursday (Wednesday). Day of the Roman Jupiter, the god of thunder, a day of thunder god Thor, and it became Thursday (Thursday). The next day called Frigg, wife of god Odin, and therefore we have a Friday (Friday). Saturn's day became Saeternsdaeg, translation of the Roman language, and then a Saturday (Saturday).
One day, usually calculated as the distance between sunrise and sunset.Roman bangasa counted from midnight to midnight, and most modern nations use this method.Sources
