 Jerusalem in the 10th / 9th centuries BC By Margreet Steiner
Some propose to down date the whole complex to the 9th century BC (the "low chronology"), others maintain that the 10th century is right, at least for certain parts of the complex.
In the past, buildings or architectural phases were assigned to the 10th century BC because they were assumed to have been built by King Solomon.
In the case of the 10th and 9th centuries BC, the situation is very complicated.

Different sections indicate construction by at least the 10th century, and probably as early as the 13th century B.C. The divergent dates for different sections of the Outer Wall are undoubtedly due to the fact that the wall had a long and complex history.
The lower wall was originally built in the LB IIB, sometime in the 13th century B.C. What caused this wall to go out of use is unclear from the data available in the probe, although a 10th century surface halfway up this wall indicates that it remained in use until the middle of that century.
The 9th/8th century ashlar inserts and wall appear to have been destroyed sometime during the 8th century B.C. Several lines of evidence suggest that the agent of destruction was an earthquake.

The Chandelas, Cholas, Kadambas, and Rashrakutas are some of the important kings who lived in India during the 10th century A.D. Some of the great temples of Khajuraho were constructed during this century.
The great temples of Chola period, accounts of travelogues left by foreign travelers such as Alberuni and period literature are some of the sources by which life in 10th century India can be reconstructed.
From the arts and artifacts available in India that can be dated to 10th century A.D. (years 901 to 1000), we can say that it was a very prosperous period in India.

 Cornish (and Other) Personal Names from the 10th Century Bodmin Manumissions
This advance should not necessarily be viewed as a "conquest"; native Cornish kings appear to have continued ruling in some areas as late as the early 10th century, and members of the two cultures appear to havelived together amicably, for the most part.
For Welsh, for example, there is the Book of Llandav, with records from the 8-10th century (Sims-Williams 1991); for Breton, the Cartulary of Redon, among others, with records primarily of the 9th century.
Unlike the case in Wales, the Anglo-Saxon advance in the Cornish peninsula was steady and eventually complete, reaching the eastern parts of Devon in the 7th century, the eastern part of Cornwall proper by the early 8th, and probably becoming complete in the mid 9th century.

 Central Java from the 8th to the 10th century (from Indonesia) --  Britannica Concise Encyclopedia - The online encyclopedia you can trust!
Eastern Javanese inscriptions throw little light on happenings before the 10th century, but the evidence from south-central Java, and especially from the Kedu Plain in the 8th and 9th centuries, is more abundant.
In the middle of the 9th century the ruler of Srivijaya-Palembang was a Sailendra who boasted of his Javanese ancestors; the name Sailendra also appears on the undated face of an inscription on the isthmus of the Malay Peninsula; the other face of the inscription—dated 775—is in honour of the ruler of Srivijaya.
Its construction extended from the late 8th century to the fourth or fifth decade of the 9th.

It was the way chant was sung in the West in the 9th and 10th centuries, and most likely in the 8th as well.
If we examine chant manuscripts from the 11th century on, we find for the most part no indications of length in the neumes and no overall rhythmic regularity: the notes are equalist, i.e., of equal length (though the singer naturally holds notes at the ends of phrases), and they are arranged freely.
Before the mid-12th century, however, it would appear that freedom, not regular recurrence, was the rhythmic norm in Western music, its matrix.

 Three 10th-9th Century B.C.E. Inscriptions From Tel Rehov
Two of these, from Stratum IV (9th century B.C.E.), were incised on restorable storage jars of the "hippo" type (Alexandre 1995); the third, from Stratum VI (10th century B.C.E.), was incised on a small body sherd from an unidentified jar or jug.
In the few 10th century inscriptions from Palestine, the nūn is less vertical, tilted at 45 degrees from the horizontal (as at tēl ʿĀmāl [Tell al-ʿĀṣi], Tēl Bāṭāš [Tell el-Baṭāšī] and Ḥorbat Rōš Zayit; see Renz 1995: III: Taf.
However, the general argument against literacy before the 8th century is that it either did not exist at all or was limited to the royal court.

 Theodora (10th century) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Theodora was a senatrix of Rome, mother of Marozia, and concubine to Pope Sergius III, whose pontificate, so far as is known, was remarkable for nothing but the rise of the pornocracy of Theodora and her daughters, a period also called the Rule of the Harlots.
Theodora was a grandmother of Pope John XI, a son of Marozia and—according to Liutprand and the Liber Pontificalis— Pope Sergius III.

 Anuradhapura (4th century BC - 10th century AD) - History of Sri Lanka
In the 3rd century BC, Buddhism was introduced to the people of Anuradhapura by Arahat Mahinda, the son of Ashoka Mauryan emperor of India, and it was him that convinced the Anuradhapura king and his followers to convert to Buddhism.
Between the mid-2nd century BC and the end of 6th century AD, a large part of Sri Lanka came under the rule of an Indian invader whose dynasty called Lambakarna and who paid attention to the development of irrigation.
During this century that Buddhism went through rejuvenation in Sri Lanka evidenced by which the sacred Bodhi Tree (Ficus religiosa) -- the tree under which the Buddha attained enlightenment in Bodhgaya in northern India -- and the Theravada school of Buddhism can still be seen in Anuradhapura today.

It presents the Byzantine ethnic terminology in the second half of the 11th century, different from the Slavic from the 10th century, which is easily noticed when the Slavic and Byzantine sources from 10th-11th century are compared.
The thinking that the Slav-Bulgarian nation was created in the 10th century is supported by the argument and by using the term Bulgarians in the following centuries in the Byzantine and Western sources for the population of the former Bulgarian territories, including the Slavs.
In the Byzantine and Western sources from the 11th-12th century, the term “Bulgarians” is not used neither for the territories in Thrace and Misia, nor for the north of Danube; where Bulgarian is called the population on the theme Bulgaria, or wider of the Ohrid Archbishopric

During the second half of the seventh century the English kingdoms, along with much of the rest of the British Isles, were affected by severe outbreaks of epidemic disease.
Through this whole region sporadic attacks continued until the 760s.(9) They appear to have been most frequent and destructive in the sixth century, but appearances may be deceptive here, for when Gregory of Tours ceased to write in 591 we lose our best informed source for the history of plague in Gaul.
In the mid-sixth century those connections were numerous and extensive.
