common year starting on Wednesday
(link will display the full calendar) of the
Julian calendar
. At the time, it was known as the
Year of the Consulship of Volusianus and Dexicrates
(or, less frequently,

Ab urbe condita
). The denomination 503 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.
