BC is the time before Jesus Christ was born therefore BC is BEFORE CHRIST and AD refers to the time after christ was born
AD is after and BC before
2 B.C.The years before 1 AD go backwards; 2 BC was before 1 BC, 3 BC was before 2 BC, and so on. After 1 AD, the years go forward; 1, 2, 3....(We are in the year 2011 A.D.)
The last date of BC was 1 BC, then the first date of AD was 1 AD, there was no zero.
Okay Will AD is older than BC because AD is very old not like BC
BC : before Christ AD : anno domino
58 years are between 30 BC and AD 30. The first thing you need to remember is that there is no year 0; the year before AD 1 is 1 BC. So the years between 30 BC and AD 30 are... 29 BC, 28 BC, 27 BC, ..., 2 BC, 1 BC, AD1, AD 2, ..., AD 27, AD 28, AD 29 29 BC through 1 BC is 29 years, and AD 1 through AD 29 is 29 years. 29 years + 29 years = 58 years
It isn't a question of closer to ad or bc, it IS bc. 3000bc would be -3000ad.
Nothing. There was no time period between BC and AD. 1 BC was followed by 1 AD. There was no year zero or any gap between BC and AD.
bc comes first because bc stands for before christ
BC dates on a number line are represented as descending values as you move left from a reference point, typically the year 1 AD, which separates BC and AD. For example, 500 BC is located to the left of 400 BC, which is further left than 300 BC. This means that the higher the BC number, the earlier in history it represents. Essentially, the timeline moves backward as you go from AD to BC.
BC is before AD (Before Christ) (After Death)
Ad because bc started after
