Under Seleucid rule, time no longer restarted with each new monarch. Instead, progressively numbered years, identical to the system we use today, became the measure of historical duration. Paul Kosmin shows how this invention of a new kind of timeâ and resistance to itâ transformed the way we organize our thoughts about the past, present, and future.
