I cannot provide an overview of "166 BC" based on the context given, as "year" alone does not contain specific information about what happened in that year or why it matters historically. I would need factual historical context to write an accurate overview.
AI-generated from the Wikipedia summary — may contain errors.
Year 166 BC was a year of the pre-Julian Roman calendar. At the time it was known as the Year of the Consulship of Marcellus and Galus (or, less frequently, year 588 Ab urbe condita). The denomination 166 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.
