Pope Felix III (483–492)

Year 483 (CDLXXXIII) was a common year starting on Saturday of the Julian calendar. At the time, it was known in the Roman Empire as the Year of the Consulship of Aginantius without colleague (or, less frequently, year 1236 Ab urbe condita). The denomination 483 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.
