In the next text, what does " In 73 BCE mean? please
In 73 BCE, Spartacus led 73 other slaves to seize knives and skewers from the kitchen and fight their way out, hijacking a wagon of gladiator equipment along the way. They were done fighting for others– now, they fought for their freedom.
best regards

CE and BCE are used for time. CE means anytime after year 0 (aka Christ) and BCE means anytime before 0. So today we live in 2019 CE.
73 BCE means 2092 years ago.
CE = common era
BCE = before common era

We use the Gregorian calendar. Before the Gregorian calendar was the Julian calendar. There is a year zero in neither the Gregorian calendar nor the Julian calendar. In which case, the year 73 BCE would be 2091 years ago, right?

I believe it means Before Common Era? If so, it used to mean before the time of Christ. I guess it's just a more politically correct designation of this. Not totally sure, though.
