Year 33 (XXXIII) was a common year starting on Thursday (link will display the full calendar) of the Julian calendar. At the time, it was known in the Roman world as the Year of the Consulship of Ocella and Sulla (or, less frequently, year 786 Ab urbe condita). The denomination 33 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.
Events
By place
Roman Empire
- Servius Sulpicius Galba is a Roman Consul.[1]
- Emperor Tiberius founds a credit bank in Rome.[2]
- A financial crisis hits Rome, due to poorly chosen fiscal policies. Land values plummet, and credit is increased. These actions lead to a lack of cash, a crisis of confidence, and much land speculation. The primary victims are senators, knights and the wealthy. Many aristocratic families are ruined.
China
- Although the usurpation of Wang Mang and the Chimei Rebellion are behind him, Emperor Guangwu now faces a new threat to the Han Dynasty: the Rebellion of Gongsun Shu in the Sichuan province. Gongsun's naval forces are unsuccessful against Han General Cen Peng, so Gongsun decides to fortify his position by blockading the entire Yangtze River with a large floating pontoon bridge, complete with floating fortified posts. He erects forts on both banks of the river for further missile fire and protects his barrier with a large boom. After Cen Peng is unable to break through, he constructs several "castle ships" with high ramparts and ramming vessels known as "colliding swoopers", which break through Gongsun's lines and allow Cen to quell his rebellion. Gongsun Shu is totally defeated three years later.
Births
- Gaius Rubellius Plautus, son of Gaius Rubellius Blandus and Julia (d. 62 AD)

- Gaius Asinius Gallus, widower of Vipsania Agrippina and alleged lover of Agrippina the elder (starvation)[5]
- April 3 - Jesus Christ of Nazareth, (possible date of the crucifixion)[6][7][8] (born circa 4 BC) The other possible date also supported by scholarly consensus among a survey of 100 published scholarly biblical statements is April 7 AD 30.[9][10]
- Marcus Aemilius Lepidus, senator, consul in 6, father-in-law of Drusus Caesar (natural causes)[11] (born circa 30 BC)
