7 BC

NOTOC Year 7 BC was a common year starting on Saturday or Sunday of the Julian calendar (the sources differ, see leap year error for further information) and a common year starting on Thursday of the Proleptic Julian calendar. In the Roman world, it was known as the Year of the Consulship of Tiberius and Piso (or, less frequently, '*year 747 *Ab urbe condita'''''). The denomination 7 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.
