Arthur,
Time since Kali Yuga started 5, 104 years
Duration of DvApara + 864, 000
_______
Time since end of TretA 869, 104 years
+
Duration of TretA 1 296, 000
________
Time since beginning of TretA 2 165, 104 years
________
________
So, if 1 700, 000 ago falls between the two dates for the TretA, there is
nothing wrong.
"Taken place" doesn't mean either started or finished.
Luis
