   Should AD be placed before or after the year?

   • Placing AD after the year: The correct usage requires AD to be placed before the year (e.g., AD 2021). Assuming AD means “after death”: AD actually stands for “Anno Domini” or “the year of our Lord” and denotes the years after Jesus Christ’s birth. Incorrect application of BC: BC should follow the year number (e.g., 1500 BC) and not precede it.
