I just saw a video about BC/AD as opposed to BCE/CE and the invention of the Gregorian calendar and I wondered what year it would be if we counted the years like the Romans did.

I prefer to think of us as being in the year 12,024.
We need a time scale that is equivalent to Kelvin.
Welcome to the year 13.7 billion!
What’s that counting from?
Holocene Calendar
12,024 years ago.
Ah ok. Thanks!
Start of agriculture I believe?
Well that’s a terrible date, it’s already after we had started living in cities and working on large scale projects.
