Saint Paul of Thebes

NOTOC Year 342 (CCCXLII) was a common year starting on Friday of the Julian calendar. At the time, it was known as the Year of the Consulship of Constantius and Claudius (or, less frequently, '*year 1095 *Ab urbe condita'''''). The denomination 342 for this year has been used since the early medieval period, when the Anno Domini calendar era became the prevalent method in Europe for naming years.
