* Significant to the [[history of agriculture]], Chinese author Jia Sixia writes the treatise ''"Chimin Yaoshu"'' in this year, and although it quotes 160 previous Chinese [[agronomy]] books, it is the oldest existent Chinese [[agriculture]] treatise. In over 100,000 written [[Chinese characters]], the book covers land preparation, [[Sowing|seeding]], cultivation, [[orchard]] management, [[forestry]], [[animal husbandry]], [[trade]], and culinary uses for [[crop]]s.
* Reports of the [[eruption]] of [[Krakatoa]] ([[Java]]), which possibly led to several years of climate change (see [[Extreme weather events of 535–536]]), are recorded in the Javanese [[Pararaton|''Book of Kings'']].
