Using BCE and CE

To cater to religious diversity, the abbreviations BCE (Before Common Era) and CE (Common Era) can be used to replace BC and AD. BCE and CE are written after the year. For example:
  • 2017 CE is the same as AD 2017
  • 487 BCE is the same as 487 BC
Here is the earlier example again written in both conventions:
  • Caesar Augustus ruled from 27 BC to AD 14.
  • Caesar Augustus ruled from 27 BCE to 14 CE.

The 'Christian' Calendar Is Widely Used

While other calendars are in use today, the 'Christian' calendar now dominates. The Christian calendar starts from the birth of Christ in the year zero (AD 0).
Here are some other calendars:
  • The Chinese calendar dates back to 2700 BC.
  • The Hindu calendar dates back to 3100 BC.
  • The Muslim calendar starts from the Hijra (Muhammad's flight from Mecca to Medina) in AD 622.
  • The Jewish calendar starts around 5,800 years ago from the date of the creation as described in scripture.
  • The Roman calendar (not used) counted from 753 BC or 0 AUC. AUC stands for 'Ab Urbe Condita' and means 'foundation of the city [Rome].' The Roman calendar was used until AD 525. Of interest, the founder of the AUC calendar forgot that Emperor Augustus ruled for four years as Octavian before changing his name, and – as he used Roman numerals not Arabic numbers – he overlooked the years 0 BC or AD 0. These errors were never corrected.
