Trajan
c. 53 CE–c. 117 CE · Italica (Santiponce)
Trajan (Marcus Ulpius Traianus, 53–117 CE) was a Roman emperor of the Nerva–Antonine line, born at Italica in the province of Hispania Baetica and the first emperor born outside Italy. He ruled from 98 CE, the period during which the Roman Empire reached its greatest territorial extent, notably through his eastern campaigns against Parthia. During those campaigns (115–117 CE), widespread revolts broke out among Jewish diaspora communities in Cyrene, Egypt, Cyprus, and Mesopotamia — the conflict later known as the Kitos War, whose name derives from his general Lusius Quietus, who helped suppress the uprisings.
