Best Answer

It is an abbreviation for 'flourished'.

It is often used when the dates of birth and death are not known. For example, if dates for a composer were given as 'fl 1584-1602' it would show that there is documentary evidence that their work became best known during those years, but that there was no clear evidence of their birth and death.

Is there an expiration date on coca cola cans?

Coca-Cola cans do not have a specific expiration date like perishable food items. However, the quality of the soda may deteriorate over time due to factors like exposure to light, temperature fluctuations, and damage to the can. It is generally recommended to consume Coca-Cola within 9 months to 1 year for the best taste and quality, but it is still safe to drink beyond that time frame as long as the can is not damaged or compromised.
