What is the meaning of the latin term anno domni?
Anno Domini, translated year of the lord (AD) and Before Christ (BC) are designations used to label or number years used with the Julian and Gregorian calendars.This calendar era is based on the traditionally reckoned year of the conception or birth of Jesus Christ, with AD counting years after the start of this epoch, and BC denoting years before the start of the epoch. There is no year zero in this scheme, so the year AD 1 immediately follows the year 1 BC. This dating system was devised in 525, but was not widely used until after 800.Anno Domini translates from Latin. It means, "year of our Lord." So called because under that calendar system, the years are measured in conjunction with the birth year of Christ Jesus. So there would be x number of years B.C. (before Christ), like 4 BC. Then there would be 3 BC, 2 BC, 1 BC, AD 1, AD 2, etc. Note there is no year called 0 in this system.This system has fallen out of use in recent years as it is considered insensitive to religious views. It has been replaced, in many circles, by BCE (before common era) and CE (common era).Anno Domini translates from Latin. It means, "year of our Lord."

What year is 563 BC?
The modern Western calendar - the one that calls this year 2008 - is calculated from the supposed year of the birth of Jesus Christ. This is dated to 1 AD. The year before that is considered as 1 BC - BC meaning Before Christ, and the year before that is the year 2 BC.... and so on backwards. So the year 563 BC is the 563rd year before the birth of Christ. * These numbers would not have been used at the time, rather they would have counted their years in terms of the reign of monarchs, or since X happened. In real terms April, 563 BC - Birth of Siddhartha Gautama, later known as Gautama Buddha in Lumbini, Nepal 563 BC - Death of Queen Maya, mother of Siddhartha Gautama

What is exact period of the Before Christ and when the after death was started?
According to Wikipedia, there is no year "0" ("Zero"). So the dateline would look like the following: ..., 4 BC, 3 BC, 2 BC, 1 BC, 1 AD, 2 AD, 3 AD, 4 BC, ... "BC" stands for "Before Christ" "AD" stands for "Anno Domini" which is Medieval Latin, translated as "In the year of the Lord", it does not stand for "After Death". The Anno Domini dating system was devised in 525 AD by Dionysius Exiguus.
What year did the stone age begin?
It depends on which Stone Age you are talking about.The Old Stone Age lasted from 2 million BC-8,000 BC.The Middle Stone Age lasted from 8,000 BC-6,000 BC.The New Stone Age was from 6,000 BC-3,500 BC.
What is mean by before Christ and what is the last year for before Christ?
If you're talking about BC and AD, BC has always been refered to as Before Christ. AD has always been refered to as After Death. Both these statements are wrong. Christ Jesus was born around 4 BC and died around 37 AD. AD actually stands for the Latin phrase Anno Domini meaning "in the year of our Lord". I hope this answers your question.Ignoring the question of exactly when Christ was born, the last year BC was 1 BC and the first year AD was AD 1. There is no zero year in either system. The years just go ... 5 BC, 4 BC, 3 BC, 2 BC, 1 BC, AD 1, AD 2, AD 3, AD 4, AD 5 ...Each century AD starts on a 01 year (e.g. 1901) and ends on a 00 year (e.g. 2000), the given example was the beginning and ending of the 20th century. Each century BC starts on a 00 year and ends on a 01 year, as the years count backward.
