AI overview

I cannot provide an accurate overview of "97 BC" based solely on the context that it is a "year," as this tells me only that it is a point in time during the 1st century BC but provides no information about what historical events, significance, or context would make it noteworthy to a general reader.

Year 97 BC was a year of the pre-Julian Roman calendar. At the time it was known as the Year of the Consulship of Lentulus and Crassus (or, less frequently, year 657 Ab urbe condita) and the Fourth Year of Tianhan. The denomination 97 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.
