Does BC go backwards?
Oh, what a happy little question! BC stands for "Before Christ," and it helps us count the years before the birth of Jesus.

Which one is earlier - 30000 BC or 10000 BC?
6,000 BC is earlier. A timeline works like so: the "J" represents the birth of Christ, which is the event which separates BC and AD. From the "J" forward is where we are now. The numbers increase 0 to 2011. From the "J" backwards the number decreases 0 to (whenever the world began). Therefore 6,000 BC come before 3,000BC.
