The Calendar designations are BC (before Christ) and AD (Anno Domini, which means 'the year of our lord'). The first use of this calendar method was 'invented', (designed), by Dionysius Exiguus approximately in 525 AD. The reason for this was to determine the correct date for Easter. He was directed to find the date by request of Pope St. John I.

Recently academics (educators) have created other designations; BCE (Before Common Era) and CE (Common Era).
