B.C. means all years before year 1 (which is the year Jesus was born). A.D. means all years after year 1. If we want to find how long ago 500 BC was we have to add 500 to the year it is now. Think of all BC numbers as negative numbers on a number line. The absolute value of -500 and 2017 is 2017+500=2517. So 500 BC was 2517 years ago. Now to find out how long ago 500 AD was simply subtract 500 from 2017. 2017-500=1517 years.

Answer:

Explana1 million years ago

The oldest unequivocal evidence, found at Israel's Qesem Cave, dates back 300,000 to 400,000 years, associating the earliest control of fire with Homo sapiens and Neanderthals. Now, however, an international team of archaeologists has unearthed what appear to be traces of campfires that flickered 1 million years ago.
