The [Header](https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/blob/a419f4df76fe4aed668a6c74696deabb9fe73211/types/block.go#L338) struct currently contains a timestamp.
This timestamp is set as the `BFTtime` derived from the block's `LastCommit.CommitSig` timestamps.
This timestamp will no longer be derived from the `LastCommit.CommitSig` timestamps and will instead be included directly into the block's `LastCommit`.
This timestamp can therefore be dropped from the header as it will be redundant information stored in both the `Header` and the `LastCommit`.
This timestamp will no longer be derived from the `LastCommit.CommitSig` timestamps and will instead be included directly into the block's `LastCommit`.
This timestamp will therfore be identical in both the `Header` and the `LastCommit`.
To clarify that the timestamp in the header corresponds to the `LastCommit`'s time, we will rename this timestamp field to `last_timestamp`.
`Header` will be updated as follows:
