AD 420 explained

Year 420 (CDXX) was a leap year starting on Thursday (link will display the full calendar) of the Julian calendar. At the time, it was known as the Year of the Consulship of Theodosius and Constantius (or, less frequently, year 1173 Ab urbe condita). The denomination 420 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. You know that it was the 420th year of the Common Era (CE) and Anno Domini (AD) designations, the 420th year of the 1st millennium, the 20th year of the 5th century, and the first year of the 420s decade.
