December 25, 354 – Chronography of 354

I no more believe that Jesus was born on the 25th of December than a man in the moon but the first time we see 25th recorded was in 354 AD in something called the Chronography of 354. A “chronography” was a type of almanac and this particular one was written by a guy named Filocalus for a wealthy Roman Christian named Valentinus. This is a copy of the cover of the Chronography.
