There are a vast number of terms that were not used in the Golden Age of Ancient Greece, mostly because they refer to terms or concepts that did not exist at that time period. One such example is the word "Greek" since the various Greek city states did not see themselves as one ethnic group, but rather as a number of distinct polities that seemed to have some cultural similarities only when compared to vastly different civilizations like Persia, Minoa, and Egypt. They used terms like Achaean and Danaan to refer to these cultural units of "Greekness", but the idea of unifying "Greekness" did not exist.

It very much depends on what you are calling ancient, and in what kind of setting. You might refer to a person as "ancient" who is a spry 80 or 90. If you pull something out of the fridge that you forgot was there, you could call it ancient, but it's not likely that it was there as long as 80 or 90 years. History isn't ancient until you go back roughly two thousand years or so, depending on how you happen to define it.
