Over 4,000 years ago, the great pyramids of Egypt were built. But, how can that be? It’s only 2020. So, were they constructed before time started? Not exactly. There were many ancient civilizations that existed before the system of years we use now. When we refrer to anything that happened before years 1-2020, we use a second systeom of years. These are a set of years that are like the ones we use now, but they work backwords. In this lesson, you will learn and practice how to correctly place years and events on a timeline.
