BC stands for Before Christ.
The BC ending in a year date means Before Christ.
It is a year and bc means before Christ
BC = is normally taken to relate to TIME and relates to [Before Christ]BC is normally suffixed to the number of a year, e.g. 500 BC, counted backwards from the nominal year for the birth of Christ.to follow on we are now in the year 2007 AD which refers to "Anno Domini" [Latin] and means in the year of Our Lord; the date used in reckoning dates after the supposed year for the birth of Christ.
500 BC occurred first, as it is earlier in the chronological timeline than 375 BC. The years are counted backward from the year 1 AD, so any year with a higher number before Christ (BC) is earlier than a year with a lower number. Thus, 500 BC predates 375 BC by 125 years.
BC = before christ AD = Anno Domini (year of our Lord) we are in the year 2011, time before year 1 was BC time afterwards (what we live in) is AD
1500 bc came before 753 bc. Year numbers go down in "bc", where the next year has a lower number than the previous year all the way to 1 bc. The year after 1 bc is 1 ad. To give an example, a tree that sprouted in 1500 bc would be about 753 years older by 753 bc and about 1500 years older by year 1 bc. On 1 ad, it would be 1501 years old.
bc= before christ ad= anno domini ( the year of our lord)
Yes, "BC" stands for "Before Christ" and is used to denote years before the traditional date of the birth of Jesus Christ. When referencing a year in the BC era, it is placed before the year number, such as "500 BC." In contrast, "AD" (Anno Domini) is used for years after Christ's birth and follows the year number, like "AD 500."

it started in the 200 bc
The BC (Before Christ) era counts backward from year 1 AD, starting from 1 BC. There is no year zero in this system, so the years recorded in BC range from 1 BC to any given earlier year, such as 2 BC, 3 BC, and so on. Therefore, the number of years recorded in BC is infinite, as it can continue indefinitely into the past.
The year after 49 BC is 48 BC.
