when the AM dates (dates after Creation) meet recognised historical BC dates. See Critical Path for further information.

Comments:
The chart displayed for this era is an overview chart, or context chart. It displays in one panoramic view the history of this world from Creation up until the time of Jesus Christ.
The chart contains labels (in bold red) which correspond to each of the detailed charts presented on this site. These labels are hot links which, when selected, will allow you to "drill down" to the detail chart itself.
The overview chart is presented in both AM and BC dating schemes.
