'''AD 89''' ('''[[Roman numerals|LXXXIX]]''') was a [[common year starting on Thursday]] of the [[Julian calendar]]. At the time, it was known as the '''Year of the [[Roman consul|Consulship]] of [[Titus Aurelius Fulvus (father of Antoninus Pius)|Fulvus]] and [[Marcus Asinius Atratinus|Atratinus]]''' (or, less frequently, '''year 842 ''[[Ab urbe condita]]'''''). The denomination AD 89 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.
