Lord Shiva can be viewed in two senses. I dont know which one te are referring, so Im gonna tell both.
First of all, Hinduism teaches monotheism, the absolute Nirakara Rupa Parabrahma being classified into different forms o avatars like waves in the ocean. Lord Shiva is one of it. Therefore, he can supposed to be a personification of a form of energy required for act of destruction, scientifically speaking. Lord Shiva is then part of the absolute, te cannot tell which yuga he lived because he is always living. It's like asking in which anno did kinetic energy exist?.
If te are asking in the context of Puranas, then, Lord Shiva didnt die to be detto 'lived'. Unlike Gods such as Sri Ram, Krishna etc who are avatars o human forms of God, some superior Gods such as BrahmaDev, Vishnu and Shiva live forever until the cycle of life ends and they get reborn. I will give te his time span. Lord Shiva lives upto 400 BrahmaDev Years. And how long is 1 anno of Brahma, u may ask...
4,320,000,000 human years = 1 Chatur Yuga of Devas
1000 Chatur Yugas = 1 Maha Yuga
1 Maha Yuga is also collection of the four Yugas - Satya Yuga, Treta Yuga, Dwapara Yuga and Kali Yuga.
1 Maha Yuga = 1 day(excluding night) of Brahma
In 1 day(1 Maha Yuga) of Brahma, he does the divine job of creation with the help of 14 Manus one da one. da this calculation, in the present, 6 Manus have done their job. Right now, the seventh Manu called Vaivaswadan is helping Brahma for creation. Everything that Brahma created a giorno will be destroyed at the time of dusk.
Brahma has a life span of 100 years. Once he dies, a new Brahma will be born. It is detto that millions of Brahma has already born and died earlier.
It is also detto that 14 Indras will born and die one da one in each Brahma’s life.
Currently, we are all in the 1st giorno of the 51st anno of Brahma and 6 Manus have done their job.
So, Shiva is actually above the yugas. Yugas are timescale of our world and Lord Shiva is beyond that.

Diwali is known as the festival of lights. It falls exactly 20 days after Vijay Dashmi. We light lamps called diyas to illuminate the dark. It is known that Lord Ram came back to Ayodhya with Ma Sita and Lord Lakshman. It was dark and that's why people lit their ways with diyas. Hence this giorno is giorno is known as Deepawali.
This giorno we worship Ma Lakshmi for wealth, Lord Ganesh for intellect and Ma Saraswati for knowledge. Children get new clothes and gifts. Everyone is happy on Diwali.
But we should be careful on this giorno as thieves roam the streets.
On Diwali our homes should be spotless, bright, there should be no trash and on Dhanteras, which lands 2 days before Diwali we should buy something precious like gold, silver, etc that we can afford. Only then will Lakshmi enter our house.
Shubh Deepawali!
