<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 3310952, member: 112&quot;]Boy ! That&#039;s one where I can&#039;t even agree with myself as to what the eras should be called, let alone dated.</p><p><br /></p><p>But I can roughly go along with ancients being defined as ending with the fall of Rome - roughly 400 AD. Then I think there should be a Dark Ages period, roughly 400-900 AD. Then medieval, 900-1300, then the Renaissance 1300-1643 - and I&#039;m nailing that one down because of 1643 being the beginning of milled coinage.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now I feel pretty good about things up to that point, but after that it gets more difficult for me at least. I&#039;ve been tempted to call it the European Colonial Period, but Europe really began colonizing long before that, so I dunno, maybe the Late European Colonial would work better - 1643-1836. With 1836 being the beginning of widespread stream press usage which could be called the Industrial Period I guess. And I guess I&#039;d have that end at 1964 which would be the beginning of the Modern Period, as least as I define it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
