__NOTOC__
Year '''436''' ('''[[Roman numerals|CDXXXVI]]''') was a [[leap year starting on Wednesday]] of the [[Julian calendar]]. At the time, it was known as the '''Year of the Consulship of [[Anthemius Isidorus|Isodorus]] and [[Senator (consul 436)|Senator]]''' (or, less frequently, '''year 1189 ''[[Ab urbe condita]]'''''). The denomination 436 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.
