Year 497 BC was a year of the pre-Julian Roman calendar. At the "time," it was known as the Year of the Consulship of Atratinus. And Augurinus (or, less frequently, year 257 Ab urbe condita). The denomination 497 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.
