"Distant past" is a title based upon conjecture.

Check the behind the scenes section, the revision history and discussion page for additional comments on this article's title.

The formation of the Sol system and the end of the Dark Times. (TV: The Runaway Bride)
For later events, see the pages for BC, the 1st century and subsequent century pages. You may also wish to consult the Dark Times, an epoch without clear boundaries.

The distant past was that period which was historically remote to the Doctor's usual travels. It had no exact date range, but could be considered to extend from the Big Bang (and perhaps earlier) to the development of modern humans, in about 100,000 BC. The Dark Times of the Universe were known to have occurred in the distant past.

Timeline

A more precise date can't be given, since this was gleaned from archaeological research and the living Angels refused to communicate with the humans.
This event may have been a myth, or an exaggeration of true events.
