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

The joke is that the format of this is normally
- Thing began in X
- People in X - 1
So when you first see it you’re like “haha, but wait that’s a bow…” then you remember “ah yes, it’s BC”

Oh ok, so it’s a play on an existing meme format. I’m not a memexpert so didn’t understand the joke.

It’s a meta meme, playing off of the format that usually has people doing something silly before the time something was invented. But it’s backwards because it’s BC.
