Lothair holds an assembly at Compiègne
The Annales Bertiniani report that Lothair held the appointed assembly at Compiègne on the Kalends of October.
What this does and does not establish
Wikisource raw revision 228343, Pars Prima. A later editorial note quotes Regino’s conflicting placement of Louis’s deposition and restoration in 838; that concerns those other actions, not the date explicitly attached to this assembly.

- Placed in a year. A source places this in one year. It is listed under that year; no day precision is invented.
How it is dated

- 833, Kalends of October
- How we use it
- Year-level placement is limited to the dated source entry.
The date reference is this project’s reading of the source’s date. It may give an era name, a reign or a calendar in a normalised form rather than in the source’s own words; the dating notes say what the source prints.
Dating notes from the research record
Examined bert1.wikitext, heading line 28 and narrative/excerpt line 30, including its continuation, with preceding annal lines 24–26 and following annal lines 32–34. The 833 narrative passes through Lent, Easter and Pentecost before this explicitly dated assembly. Kalendas Octobris maps directly to 1 October, Julian AD 833. The later closing transition naming 834 occurs near Christmas and does not affect this October event. Original quotation begins at line 30, character 17789.
File names and line numbers in these notes, and in the limits above, refer to the project’s retained copies of the cited sources. Names such as calendar_headers are the project’s calendar look-ups, and “the investigator” is the research step that prepared the record.
Sources and quoted text
