AI overview

I don't have enough context to write an accurate overview of "168" based solely on "year." The number 168 could refer to multiple things (a year in various calendar systems, a book, a film, a historical event, etc.), and without additional information, I cannot provide an accurate explanation that meets your requirement to base it only on the provided context.

Encyclopedic overview

Year 168 (CLXVIII) was a leap year starting on Thursday of the Julian calendar. At the time, it was known as the Year of the Consulship of Apronianus and Paullus (or, less frequently, year 921 Ab urbe condita). The denomination 168 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.
