Random information on the term “Period”:
An era is a span of time defined for the purposes of chronology or historiography, as in the regnal eras in the history of a given monarchy, a calendar era used for a given calendar, or the geological eras defined for the history of Earth.
Comparable terms are epoch, age, period, saeculum, aeon (Greek aion) and Sanskrit yuga.
The word has been in use in English since 1615, and is derived from Late Latin aera “an era or epoch from which time is reckoned,” probably identical to Latin æra “counters used for calculation,” plural of æs “brass, money”.
The Latin word use in chronology seems to have begun in 5th century Visigothic Spain, where it appears in the History of Isidore of Seville, and in later texts. The Spanish era is calculated from 38 BC, Before Christ, perhaps because of a tax (cfr. indiction) levied in that year, or due to a miscalculation of the Battle of Actium, which occurred in 31 BC.
Like epoch, “era” in English originally meant “the starting point of an age”; the meaning “system of chronological notation” is c. 1646; that of “historical period” is 1741.
