-1

they knew something big was coming as early as -2327. they still labeled their years like that even before then, but that was the year that negative numbers were discovered. before then they actually though all numbers began with a minus sign and that you actually were supposed to count backward.

The word for the orange fruit (nārangī) originated in India and the color was named after the fruit.

I'm going to be Captain Obvious and point out that Oranges existed long before the English Language.

So they were probably called 1000s of different things before they were called Oranges.

And the colour Orange was called a 1000 different things before Orange
