Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -BCE stands for “Before Common Era.” Just like how we use CE as a more secular way of saying AD, we also use BCE as a more inclusive way of saying BC. The year 500 BCE. is the same year as 500 BC.
Detailed explanation-2: -BCE (Before Common Era) and BC (Before Christ) mean the same thing-previous to year 1 CE (Common Era).
Detailed explanation-3: -BCE (Before Common Era) = BC. For example: 48 BC becomes 48 BCE. CE (Common Era) = AD. For example: AD 120 becomes 120 CE.
