That seems a little Americo-centric don't you think?
It just seems humorous that the 'academic community' becomes so upset by the 3 or 7 year inaccuracy in the Gregorian Calandar, and then uses the same calendar with different labels that make little more sense. I'm sure they have some specific usage of "common" in mind (a thinly veiled put down of the Christian cult?), but in general it is a rather inclusive term. Since it concerns a period in time when the world's lands and peoples were mostly isolated from one another, why not use a term a little more discriptive of the period in question, like cultural era? If we're talking about the last 2000 years as a whole, Roman Civilization was probably the most influential factor in historical events.
Anyway, in another 5-10 millenia, this will all become moot, and that's all that's really important anyway...

to ricketyclikIf I determine the enemy's disposition of forces while I have no percerptible form, I can concentrate my forces while the enemy is fragmented. The pinnacle of military deployment approaches the formless: if it is formless, then even the deepest spy cannot discern it nor the wise make plans against it.
