Note: Identification of years as Before Common Era or Before Current Era or Before Christian Era. BCE uses the same numbering as BC (Before Christ) and corresponds to the Gregorian Calendar. "CE" and "BCE" are placed after a year number, and BCE is now most often used instead of BC especially in scientific writing. |
