Present notation: IX-XXIX-MCMXCIX

Previous notation: IX-IXXX-IMM

There is evidence that can still be found today that the Romans themselves would have calculated the equivalent of 9-29-1999 on an abacus counting device as VIIII-XXVIIII-MDCCCCLXXXXVIIII which can be simplified to IX-IXXX-IMM.

For instance the Latin word for IXXX is 'undetriginta' which literally means one from thirty and the numerals of XXVIIII can be found on one of the entrances of the Coliseum in Rome.

Today's rules governing the Roman numeral system were modified during the Middle Ages presumably to make them easier for conversion purposes into Hindu-Arabic numerals and vice versa.

The Hindu-Arabic system of numeracy eventually superceded the Roman numeral system because it contained a zero symbol which made calculations much more quicker and efficient.
