The term BC is used in reference to the time period before Christ while the term AD is used to describe the after Jesus was born. That means that the year 500 BC is 500 years before Christ was born.

Do you add or subtract BC from present year?

To convert a year in BC (Before Christ) to the corresponding year in AD (Anno Domini), you add the BC year to the present year and then subtract 1. For example, if the current year is 2023 and you want to convert 500 BC, you would calculate 2023 + 500 - 1, which equals 2522. This method accounts for the lack of a year zero in the transition from BC to AD.
