355

Closer to 113 pi than 22 is to 7 pi

355/113 is a better approximation to pi than 22/7

356 BC Alexander the Great is born. According to legend the same night the Temple of Artemis in Ephesus, one of the seven wonders of the ancient world, was burned. Plutarch states that the goddess was too busy overlooking Alexanders birth to protect her temple. Herostratus, the arsonist, admitted his crime and said he did it to leave his name in history.

In Sydney NSW Australia, the 357 bus takes you from Mascot to Bondi Junction.

If you want to take it, you should note it is prepay only (you can't use cash on the bus).

Douglas Adams, author of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, thought 359 the funniest of all three-digit numbers.

360-- a number often mistakenly used to describe heading in a completely different direction in life... When what is actually meant is 180.

361 the lowest number that is centred both octagonally and decagonally.

It also happens to be triangular centred and the square of 19.

Also if you turn completely around and go just that tiniest tad too far that's probably the number of degrees you've turned.

Known also as Meshrop the Translator is revered as a saint in Christianity.

363 Julian the Apostate defeats the Persians but he's fatally injured by an arrow that penetrates his lung. Knowing the severity of the wound he denies the removal of the arrow and spends his last night discussing the immortality of the soul. His last words are said to be: You defeated me Nazarene. The army chooses the commander of the guard Jovian as the new emperor.

374 AD The people of Mediolanum (today's Milan) chose as their bishop Ambrosius who was until then the governor of the area. He will accept reluctantly and become a saint. The day of his rise to the episcopal throne is the day of his memory as a saint, December 7. The Ambrosian Chant is his work.
