AI overview

I cannot provide an overview of "17 BC" based solely on the context that it is a "year," as this does not contain sufficient information about what specifically happened in that year or why it would matter historically. To write an accurate overview, I would need context about significant events, people, or developments that occurred in 17 BC.

Coin of King Asander (110 BC–17 BC)

Year 17 BC was either a common year starting on Sunday or Monday or a leap year starting on Saturday, Sunday or Monday of the Julian calendar (the sources differ, see leap year error for further information) and a leap year starting on Friday of the Proleptic Julian calendar. At the time, it was known as the Year of the Consulship of Furnius and Silanus (or, less frequently, year 737 Ab urbe condita). The denomination 17 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.
