500 (Roman numerals: D) was a common year of the Gregorian calendar.
It started on a Friday. The Julian calendar had it as a leap year starting on Saturday, which was used before the Gregorian calendar. The exceptional common year starting on Friday was called 500 when the Gregorian calendar was not in use, of course. The leap year began on the Saturday, and ended on the Sunday, just like the year 2000 did.
