Emperor Honorius, by Jean-Paul Laurens

Year 393 (CCCXCIII ) was a common year starting on Saturday of the Julian calendar. At the time, it was known as the Year of the Consulship of Augustus and Augustus (or, less frequently, year 1146 Ab urbe condita ). The denomination 393 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.

January 23 – Emperor Theodosius I proclaims his son Honorius, age 8, co-ruler (Augustus ) of the Western Roman Empire.
Theodosius I demands the destruction of pagan temples, holy sites, and ancient objects throughout the Roman Empire.
