Substantiv
anachronism - A chronological mistake; the erroneous dating of an event, circumstance, or object.
anachronism - A person or thing which seems to belong to a different time or period of time.

An anachronism—from the Greek ανά and χρόνος —is an accidental or deliberate inconsistency in some chronological arrangement, especially a chronological misplacing of persons, events, objects, or customs in regard to each other. The item is often an object, but may be a verbal expression, a technology, a philosophical idea, a musical style, a material, a custom, or anything else so closely associated with a particular period in time that it would be incorrect to place it outside its proper domain. A representation of something as existing or occurring at other than its proper time in history.
