LOL, I thought he just died or something else horrible happened to him:)

Did it lead to a hit ballad for the Prince? ;)

No, but maybe a Tweety giveaway ;-)

That's a myth. However, Silvester II was apparently personally awesome, and there are many more myths about him. Too bad this isn't taught in school. Really, schools everywhere should adopt a policy: being the protagonist in a fantasy novel earns a historical person a place in the curriculum.

Poor Sylvester II ( by the way, an erudite, astronomer and bright mathematician, in fact too erudite to be sanctified by the conservative and often regresive church ) has nothing to do with it. The 1st of January was, since 153 BC , the date at which political mandates of the Roman Republic started. in 46 BC , Caius Julius Caesar made it the official startiing point of the calendar year. The end of the year was traditionnaly market by celebrations and customary gifts ( small amounts of money, garments ) . The custom of setting the end of year on 31 December was reinstated in 1622 by Pope Gregorius XV. The link with Sylvester comes from the fact that Sylvester I, a 4th century pope, is celebrated on 31 December.

That's why I said it's a legend (but I didn't know about that real link, thanks!).
