Notes: Terms specific to Strauss & Howe are depicted, but many popular alternates are also accepted. Although the Birth Years are listed, the generation is usually defined by what happend twenty to fourty years after the generation's members were born.

* The latest Hero and Artist Generations are still ongoing, and concrete definitions are still being developed.
