This category (and within its own specific purpose, the analogous Category:Year of death unknown) is intended for use on discussion pages of individuals from antiquity whose year of birth is lost to history and never likely to be known. Year of birth unknown will also be applicable to many individuals from the less-remote past who gained varying degrees of notability at some points in their lives, but were born in times and under circumstances which precluded the recording and/or preservation of historical data.
In the case of contemporary or recent figures whose year of birth is presumed to have been recorded and could be researched, please use Category:Year of birth missing (living people) or Category:Year of birth missing, which includes individuals active since the latter part of the 19th century and those in Category:Possibly living people.
This category and categories Date of birth unknown and Date of birth missing (which only indicate the absence of month and day of birth) are intended to be mutually exclusive.
NOTE: Article-page categories which delineate the precise decade or century of the pertinent individual's birth, such as Category:1070s births or Category:11th-century births, specify additional data and are not intended as substitutes for this all-encompassing discussion-page category.
