Full Discussion: How to find the date on which a particular directory is created?
Operating Systems AIX How to find the date on which a particular directory is created? Post 302472457 by jim mcnamara on Wednesday 17th of November 2010 07:53:34 AM

With the exception of some oddball linux filesystems, nowhere does UNIX store a create time/date for file or directories

Code:
ls -lud dirname  # time last accessed == atime
ls -ld   dirname  # time last written to == mtime
ls -lctd dirname  # last time filesystem metadata for the directory changed (inode) == ctime
