__NOTOC__
Year '''387 BC''' was a year of the [[Roman calendar|pre-Julian Roman calendar]]. At the time, it was known as the '''Year of the Tribunate of Papirius, Fidenas, Mamercinus, Lanatus and Poplicola''' (or, less frequently, '''year 367 ''[[Ab urbe condita]]'''''). The denomination 387 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.

=== By place ===
==== Greece ====
* End of the [[Corinthian War]]:
:* [[Peace of Antalcidas]] (or "the king's peace") is brokered by [[Artaxerxes II]]. Under the Peace, all the Asiatic mainland and [[Cyprus]] remain under Persian control, Lemnos, Imbros, and Scyros remain Athenian dependencies, and all the other Greek states are to receive autonomy. By the King's Peace, the Persians become key players in Greek politics.
:* Under the threat of Spartan intervention, [[Thebes, Greece|Thebes]] disbands its league, and [[Argos, Peloponnese|Argos]] and [[Corinth]] end their shared government. Corinth is incorporated back into Sparta's [[Peloponnesian League]].
*[[Plato]] founds the [[Platonic Academy]] in [[Athens]], where he teaches [[Aristotle]] until [[347 BC]].

* With the aid of the [[Lucanians]], [[Dionysius I of Syracuse]] devastates the territories of ''[[Thurii]]'', ''[[Crotone]]'', and ''Locri'' in mainland [[Italy]]. When [[Rhegium]] falls, Dionysius becomes the chief power in Greek Southern Italy. He then turns his attention to the [[Adriatic]] and founds the colonies of [[Ancona]] (Ankon) and [[Adria]] (Adrìa).
* [[Plato]] is forced by Dionysius to leave [[Syracuse, Sicily|Syracuse]] after having exercised the right of free speech too broadly. Plato returns to [[Athens]], outside which he founds a school.
