What if civilization gradually settles on a base 12 numbering system in antiquity instead of a base 10 system as OTL--would there by any significant effects? Ignore butterflies, I'm talking about intelligible effects.

So, for instance, you could say that the First Great Awakening would kick off a littler earlier (in the OTL 1720s instead of the OTL 1730s) because the ATL year 1000 A.D. is OTL 1728.
