Peter Wiseman's influential book, first published in 1979 and now for the first time in paperback, concerns the writing of history during the first century BCE, when Rome was in process of becoming the centre of the Greek, as much as her own, literary world.
Few would now argue, as they used to, that Supplices belongs to the 490s but some still have the feeling that it looks like an early play; they attempt to put it back into the 470s.
Stylistic and structural evidence, itself often subjective, is not strong enough to place the play in one decade or exclude it from the previous one; but Garvie remains convinced that, even without the additional testimony of the papyrus, all the internal evidence points to the 460s.

In fact, B. may have been born around 520, given that two of his poems, ode 17 and the enkomion for the young prince Alexandros, son of King Amyntas of Macedonia (fr.
20B), can be dated to the early 490s; this would make him closely contemporary with Pindar, who was born in 518.
The assumption, made in some late Byzantine sources but not shared by the earlier biographies, that he was younger than Pindar is therefore unfounded, as is the entry in Eusebios’ Chronicle for 431

By the 490s, when Romulus Augustulus would have been in his late twenties or early thirties, Lucullanum was home to a significant monastery associated with the cult of St Severinus.
The idea that it's preferable to use BCE and CE rather than BC and AD seems bogus to me. How can it be culturally neutral to claim that a global 'common era' began 2004 years ago?
