Medieval
The medieval period traditionally begins with the 'fall' of the Western Roman Empire in 476 CE and continues for a millennium until the early modern period starts c. 1500 CE. The early period (fifth to tenth centuries) is frequently called the Dark Ages - to reflect an inaccurately perceived lack of development - and less commonly Late Antiquity.
