At the time, it was known as the '''Year of the Consulship of Macerinus and Iullus''' (or, less frequently, '''year 307 ''[[Ab urbe condita]]'''''). The denomination 447 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.<br /> <br /> == Events ==<br /> &lt;onlyinclude&gt;<br /> <br /> === By place ===<br /> ==== Greece ====<br /> * [[Pericles]] leads [[Athens|Athenian]] forces in the expulsion of barbarians from the [[Thrace|Thracian]] peninsula of [[Gallipoli]], in order to establish [[Athenian]] colonists in the region.&lt;ref&gt;Plutarch, ''Parallel Lives'', ''Pericles'' 19.1-2&lt;/ref&gt; Thus [[Pericles]] starts a policy of [[cleruchy]] (klerouchos) or &quot;out-settlements&quot;.

The Athenians, under their general [[Tolmides]], with 1000 [[hoplites]] plus other troops from their allies, march into [[Boeotia]] to take back the towns revolting against [[Athens|Athenian]] control. They capture [[Chaeronea]], but are attacked and defeated by the [[Boeotians]] at [[Battle of Coronea (447 BC)|Coronea]].
