Let (X, f(1,infinity)) be a nonautonomous dynamical system. In this paper, we summarize known definitions of periodic points for general nonautonomous dynamical systems and propose a new definition of asymptotic periodicity. This definition is not only very natural but also resistant to changes of the beginning of the sequence generating the nonautonomous system. We show the relations among these definitions and discuss their properties. We prove that for pointwise convergent nonautonomous systems topological transitivity together with a dense set of asymptotically periodic points imply sensitivity. We also show that even for uniformly convergent systems, the nonautonomous analogue of Sharkovsky's theorem is not valid for most definitions of periodic points.
