487


Note

487

Year 487 (CDLXXXVII) was a common year starting on Thursday of the Julian calendar. At the time, it was known as the Year of the Consulship of Boethius without colleague (or, less frequently, '*year 1240 *Ab urbe condita'''''). The denomination 487 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.
