486


Note

486

NOTOC Year 486 (CDLXXXVI) was a common year starting on Wednesday of the Julian calendar. At the time, it was known as the Year of the Consulship of Basilius and Longinus (or, less frequently, '*year 1239 *Ab urbe condita'''''). The denomination 486 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.
