When did Aristotle come up with his theory of the atom not being the smallest part of matter?
In 335 BCE, Aristotle opened his school, Lucem. He did not believe the Atomic theory and therefore taught his students that all substances were not made up of atoms but something smaller. He believed that everything was made up of small amounts of fire, water, earth and air.
What did democritus discovered?
He didn't "discover" anything. He took a wild guess about what very small pieces of matter were like based on really no tangible evidence whatsoever and happened to be approximately correct if you're not too terribly picky about the details.
What did Leucippus discover?
Leucippus or Leukippos was a Greek scientist who lived sometime around 450-500 years BCE. He didn't so much "discover" as theorized. He was one of the earliest scientists to come up with the theory of atomism, that everything is made up of particles that cannot be divided up any further. The Greeks called these particles "atoms". His disciple was Democritus.
Were atoms named in the fifth century BCE.?
Yes! The Greek philosopher Democritus, born in 460 B.C., first theorized the smallest possible particle, and called it the atom. Of course, the definition of an atom has changed quite a bit (there is no such thing as a water atom!), and we know that even smaller particles exist, but Democritus was definitely thinking in the right direction.

The present year is 2011 CE. It can also stand for "Christian Era;" perhaps more accurately. There was no sudden commonality in the world at 1CE.

What does the fourth millennium BC or BCE mean in terms of beginning and end dates?
A millenium is 1000 years long from beginning to end. In terms of the modern calendar, there is no year-long period called year zero, no century zero and no millenium zero. As it is on the standard number line, 'zero' is a point in time on the calendar.So, the year 1 BCE (Before Common Era, or BC for Before Christ) ended on December 31 1 BCE, the day before January 1, 1 AD. That first year started on the previous January 1, 1 BCE.The first century BCE is the entire 100 years ending December 31 1 BCE, and starting January 1 100 BCE.The first millenium BCE then started January 1 1000 BCE and ended December 31 1 BCE.The fourth millenium BCE started January 1 4000 BCE and ended December 31 3001 BCE.It is a little odd. The numbers of the years centuries and millenia go in reverse order, like the number line. But the dates within a given year go forward as usual.
