Anno Domini Present Times A.D. 2016 Basic Timeline Structure: B.C.= Before Christ A.D.= Anno Domini (NOT After Death) Anno Domini means “In the Year of Our Lord” Title Events Intervals Pictures or Photographs Christ was Born A.D. 1 Before Christ 40,000 B.C. Anno Domini Present Times A.D. 2016 Title

Intervals on a Timeline When creating a timeline, the interval or number of years between each date must be equal. This interval will vary depending on the length of the time period that the timeline covers. An easy way to think about the interval being used on a timeline is "What are we counting by?” On this timeline, there are 10 years between each date on the timeline, therefore the interval is 10 years. You can also think of it as "We're counting by 10 years."
