AI overview

I don't have enough context to write an accurate overview of "704." While you've indicated it relates to a year, I would need additional information about what specifically "704" refers to (a historical period, event, law, or other subject) to provide an accurate and useful overview for a general reader.

Encyclopedic overview

Lion symbol used on king Aldfrith's coinage

Year 704 (DCCIV) was a leap year starting on Tuesday of the Julian calendar, the 704th year of the Common Era (CE) and Anno Domini (AD) designations, the 704th year of the 1st millennium, the 4th year of the 8th century, and the 5th year of the 700s decade. The denomination 704 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.
