469

Note

469

Year 469 (CDLXIX) was a common year starting on Wednesday of the Julian calendar. At the time, it was known as the Year of the Consulship of Marcianus and Zeno (or, less frequently, '*year 1222 *Ab urbe condita'''''). The denomination 469 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.
