1 hr confidence:

early Tuscan nineteen hundreds

Explanation:
I notice that contemporary British Historians use these easier to master terms for centuries, although I really much prefer Phil's good-old fashioned answer. Question of taste I suppose.

I don't know about that Phil. The expression nineteen hundreds and sixteen hundreds has always existed in British English as far as I am aware, but if you were looking for an A in history then you went for twentieth and seventeenth century. Then I noticed that university professors of history on BBC documentaries were consistently using the hundreds expression. My feeling is that they were "dumbing" it down for a broader audience, but once it comes out of the mouth of a university professor on the BBC in a serious academic context, then that is it, it automatically becomes standard usage in the highest academic circles.

BTW, surely they celebrated the start of the twenty first century in the USA eleven years ago and not the beginning of the twenty hundreds?
