At the time, it was known as the Year of the Consulship of Coritinesanus and Caeliomontanus[1] (or, less frequently, year 306 Ab urbe condita). The denomination 448 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.
