AI overview

I don't have enough context to write an accurate overview of "706." The single word "year" doesn't clarify whether 706 refers to a historical year, a legal code, a product model, or something else entirely. Could you provide more specific context about what 706 is?

Encyclopedic overview

The Great Mosque of Damascus (Syria)

Year 706 (DCCVI) was a common year starting on Friday of the Julian calendar, the 706th year of the Common Era (CE) and Anno Domini (AD) designations, the 706th year of the 1st millennium, the 6th year of the 8th century, and the 7th year of the 700s decade. The denomination 706 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.
