The [Monastery of Stoudios](/source/Monastery_of_Stoudios) ([Turkey](/source/Turkey))

Year **462** (**[CDLXII](/source/Roman_numerals)**) was a [common year starting on Monday](/source/Common_year_starting_on_Monday) of the [Julian calendar](/source/Julian_calendar). At the time it was known as the **Year of the Consulship of [Severus](/source/Libius_Severus) and [Leo](/source/Leo_I_(emperor))** (or, less frequently, **year 1215 *[Ab urbe condita](/source/Ab_urbe_condita)***). The denomination 462 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.
