AI overview

I don't have enough context to write an accurate overview of "340." The only information provided is that it relates to a year, but this doesn't clarify whether you're asking about the year 340 CE/AD, a historical event that occurred in 340, a modern reference using "340" as a designation, or something else entirely. Could you provide additional context?

Encyclopedic overview

Year 340 (CCCXL) was a leap year starting on Tuesday of the Julian calendar. At the time, it was known as the Year of the Consulship of Acindynus and Valerius (or, less frequently, year 1093 Ab urbe condita). The denomination 340 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.
