'''AD 92''' ('''[[Roman numerals|XCII]]''') was a [[leap year starting on Sunday]] of the [[Julian calendar]]. At the time, it was known as the '''Year of the [[Roman consul|Consulship]] of [[Domitian|Augustus]] and [[Quintus Volusius Saturninus (consul 92)|Saturninus]]''' (or, less frequently, '''year 845 ''[[Ab urbe condita]]'''''). The denomination AD 92 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.
