441 BC


NOTOC Year 441 BC was a year of the pre-Julian Roman calendar. At the time, it was known as the Year of the Consulship of Fusus and Crassus (or, less frequently, '*year 313 *Ab urbe condita'''''). The denomination 441 BC 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.
