Ciao Mohammad

I think this is a fascinating topic where computer science meets social 
behaviour. A little while ago there was a related interesting thread ... 
https://groups.google.com/d/msg/tiddlywiki/YaFzHXfjnFc/Rhkybx0BAQAJ

That thread was concerned with date RANGES in TW standard date mechanism 
(it only works from 1899 11 30 00:00:00.00 on in Gregorian).

Regarding your OP, its worth mentioning that accurate  historical dating 
that goes back a long, long way is more needed by astronomers than 
historians or social scientists.

The modern concept of date recording becomes less workable the further you 
go back in time. In pre-industrial revolution societies every century back 
"universal" dates become rarer. Mainly used on official documents. 
Otherwise date recording conforms more to local perception of agricultural 
peasants--I.e. based on empirical observation of crop cycles.

The meaning here is: better dating in TW would be good but only necessary 
back far enough with accuracy for practical aims. 

Just comments.
