Year 478 (CDLXXVIII) was a common year starting on Sunday (link will display the full calendar) of the Julian calendar. At the time, it was known as the Year of the Consulship of Illus without colleague (or, less frequently, year 1231 Ab urbe condita). The denomination 478 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.

[edit] By place
[edit] Byzantine Empire
- Verina, mother-in-law of emperor Zeno, attempts to kill Isaurian general Illus for turning against Basiliscus, her brother. The revolt is led by her son-in-law Marcian and the Ostrogoth warlord Theodoric Strabo, but Illus again proves his loyalty to Zeno by quashing the revolt.
[edit] Asia
- The first Shinto shrines are built in Japan.
- The Song Dynasty ends in China.
- Chinese chronicles record a memorial sent by the "King of Japan" (possibly Emperor Yūryaku), who describes himself as "Supreme Director of Military Affairs in Japan and Korea" to the Court of the Northern Wei Dynasty. The Chinese Emperor responds by confirming the Japanese dynasty in those titles. This is the earliest verifiable date in Japanese history.
