The new millennium, however, began to bring small success for Part.

While we're at it, need we remind anyone that the old millennium does not truly begin for another year?

Cottière was a millennialist, who believed that the millennium had begun in the year 1517.

So our argument has always been that the new millennium will begin on Jan. 1 at the stroke of midnight along the Greenwich meridian.

As we all know by now, the 21st century and the third millennium do not begin until midnight tonight on the international date line.

The millennium is just beginning.

And maybe it has to do with the end of our millennium fast approaching, and the profound implication that someone else's millennium is beginning.

And so the second millennium did not begin until Jan. 1, 1001.

Similarly, our third millennium will not begin until Jan. 1, 2001.

The second millennium, then, began with the year 1001 and will end with the year 2000.
