Year **384 BC** was a year of the [pre-Julian Roman calendar](/source/Roman_calendar). At the time, it was known as the **Year of the Tribunate of Cornelius, Poplicola, Camillus, Rufus, Crassus and Capitolinus**[1] (or, less frequently, **year 370 *[Ab urbe condita](/source/Ab_urbe_condita)***). The denomination 384 BC for this year has been used since the early medieval period, when the [Anno Domini](/source/Anno_Domini) [calendar era](/source/Calendar_era) became the prevalent method in Europe for naming years.
