      Lol, the joke is just that this is the inverse of how this meme usually works, since counting backwards in BC is forward in time.

          The best jokes always need explaining.

        I get that, but I don’t get the joke. Is the joke that after bows were invented, people started using them?

          I think the joke is that people who don’t know how years work would think 4999 BC was before 5000.
