If all you wish to do is track years, and on a grand scale, I would
recommend simply using a number type attribute instead of the date type
attribute. Alternatively, you could use a string type, then you can type in
"1300 B.C.E", "1467", "c.1199 A.D." or whatever else you want (though, if
you want to indicate circa, I would put that on the end for sorting
reasons.) I have problems entering even dates from early in this century,
let alone hundreds of years ago.
