Random information on the term “Periods”:

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.

Random information on the term “ERAS”:

Eras is a humanist sans-serif typeface designed by Albert Boton and Albert Hollenstein and was released by the International Typeface Corporation (ITC) in 1976. Eras is licensed by the Linotype type foundry.

A distinct and curious feature of Eras is its slight, 3-degree right tilt. Eras follows ITC’s formulary of increased x-height, and multiple weights from light to ultra bold, though because all weights are slightly slanted, no italic version of the font is supplied. Eras is further distinct for its open bowls on the characters a, P, R, 6, and 9. The letter W changes shape from a merged ‘double V’ shape in the lighter variants to the standard W symbol in the bolder variants.

The typeface has been widely used by Telecom Italia Mobile as a corporate typeface TIM stopped use of Eras in 2016. It was also used in the emblem and image of the 1998 FIFA World Cup, in the credits for the movie Caddyshackand in the video games Tekken Tag Tournament, Jet Ion GP and Championship Manager 01/02. The American Broadcasting Company (ABC) network used the font in its on-air promotion graphics during the early to mid-1980s. A modified version of the font can be seen on the cover of Motörhead’s 1981 album No Sleep ’til Hammersmith. The Stanley Kubrick movie Full Metal Jacket uses Eras typeface on the credits. Brazilian stock exchange Bovespa (now B3 S.A. – Brasil, Bolsa, Balcão) used Eras typeface for its logo and tagline. Indonesian muslim animated series Nussa used modified version of Eras typeface for their logo.
