468 BC


NOTOC Year 468 BC was a year of the pre-Julian Roman calendar. At the time, it was known as the Year of the Consulship of Barbatus and Priscus (or, less frequently, '*year 286 *Ab urbe condita'''''). The denomination 468 BC for this year has been used since the early medieval time, when the Anno Domini calendar era became the prevalent method in Europe for naming years.
