Author notes
The real story is probably not as delicious. 360 was likely an approximation for the number of days in a year. That's just an educated guess, though, so maybe my version is correct. (Forget the horrible pizza anachronism, heh.) I Googled Babylonian to get an idea of fashion. I'm not sure it's accurate, but I figure short dresses/tunics were typical for most of those ancient civilizations.DD Awards closes this Friday. If you haven't sent in a ballot, go do it! More volunteers are needed for judging panels too.
