Usage of phrasal verb "put together"

"People had to try for thousands of years before they knew how to put together days, weeks, months, and years."

This sentence is from an article about "Inventing calendar". The word I am so confused is "put together". Does this sentence means "they try to create days by combing hours,weeks by combing days,months by combing weeks" or "they try to form a calendar by joining days,weeks,months,and year together?
