Placed in AD 822 by a source

Each record sits in this year because its source places it here, or because a conversion of the source’s date, stated on the record, does. That is a placement, not a settled date, and not a complete account of the year. “No region assigned” means the collection has not fixed where the act took place. How to read a record

Louis performs public penance at Attigny

The annals state that Emperor Louis performed public confession and penance at the assembly at Attigny in August.

Limits: Annales regni Francorum, pinned Wikisource raw revision 264822. The preceding portion of line 567 identifies the emperor and connects the penance with his treatment of his brothers, Bernard, Adalhard and Wala. The record concerns the August penance, not the earlier actions confessed.
