Guest imported_El Mamerro Posted October 23, 2003 Share Posted October 23, 2003 It'd be -6th and -4th century, respectively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ModelCitizen Posted October 23, 2003 Share Posted October 23, 2003 Yeah with BCE its a number backward to indicate the century; with CE it's a number ahead. 564 BCE (BC in religious context) = 6th century 225 CE (AD in religious context) = 3rd century Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlQuds Posted October 24, 2003 Share Posted October 24, 2003 Actually, if its "280 B.C." it would be "3rd Century B.C." If its "280 A.D." it would be "3rd Century A.D." we are currently in the 21st Century in 1999 we were in the 20th century Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boxcarwilly Posted October 24, 2003 Share Posted October 24, 2003 quite obviously swiffer is right, and just to add to the discussion, in modern times with all the talk of religious freedom from state influence, CE is the politically correct way of saying before christ instead the genius' called it "common era" thus making BCE stand for "before common era" it also means that we cant trust anyone due to the fact that we started counting years on a whim, astronomers and scholars have pointed more to him being born anywhere four to twelve years from the projected date. useless info care of the JBCministry of jeopardy counselling.
