For as long as astronomers have influenced the writing of history, humanity has gone with the 365-day year. However, only in the first millenium AD did we have a reference point in time to count years.
According to the writings of the New Testament and the historian Josephus, historical time was kept by noting who was reigning at the time, and how many years into that ruler's kingdom the events occurred.
Luke 3;1-2 is a good example.
