The passion of Christ is dated to...I think 30 or 33 years after his death so this is set I think in the 7th century. Which is interesting because that is often how things were dated pre-800, after which the AD system was more widely adopted.
oh, yes, of course, read over the word passion, and passion ≠ birth (reading for diversion is done with a different part of my brain from reading for studies, apparently
). wouldn't that make it c750 (717 + 33)?
yeah it would, haha. I've had an early morning so I can't math.
I mean, seriously that calculation could have gone either way as far as I'm concerned this morning 
I should be better at this sort of thing, my supervisor does computus and I've spent the last few days looking at annals lmao.
