[edit] Discussion

Someone please clarify how the year 0 (in "astrononomical" calculation) would belong to the first century BC!

• 10⁹ years - aeon – 10⁶ years - eon – 10³ years - millennium – 10² years - century – 10¹ years - decade – 10⁰ years - year

• kilo-annum (ka/Ka) - 10e3 years

• annum (a) - kilo-annum (ka) - mega-annum (Ma) - giga-annum (Ga)

[edit] old See also

• Centuries
• decade (ten years)
• aeon
• eon
• era (undetermined)
• indictio (fifteen years in Roman fiscality)
• lustrum (five years)
• Millennium (ten centuries)
• annum (year)

I excised this, as User:LimoWreck points out, other units of time shouldn't show up on the see also. I don't see the reason behind it though. It seems like a perfectly good reason to put it into the see also section 132.205.45.148 02:13, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

Maybe navigation templates might be a good idea? --Kjoonlee 05:27, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

I came across this and was bold. Please review the edit. There's not a whole bunch of new information, just a bit more nicely presented (hopefully). —Preceding unsigned comment added by MCCRogers (talk • contribs) 06:20, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
