158 BC
Year 158 BC was a year of the pre-Julian Roman calendar. At the time it was known as the Year of the Consulship of Lepidus and Laenas (or, less frequently, year 596 Ab urbe condita) and the Sixth Year of Houyuan. The denomination 158 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.

gollark: If they agree to it, sure.
gollark: It seems like you're (implicitly?) doing that weird motte-and-bailey thing where you go "by some strained technical definition, you are part of your parent's body" and then go "since you're now obviously part of their body, they get authority over you".
gollark: You're arguing a different thing to "it's literally them", then.
gollark: And is a separate independent entity which can exist without them (well, not without the mother, but when it's born).
gollark: I don't think the body thing makes much sense anyway, inasmuch as the genetic material in the fetus doesn't actually match exactly what either parent has but is some mixed-up combination of them.
