When Does "Trajan's Column" (113) Take Place?
"Columna Traiani"/"Trajan's Column" is a historical fiction comic-strip carved? by CREATOR that released May 12th, 113. So when is "Trajan's Column" set?
It takes place in the years:
We know this because the real-world Roman Emperor Marcus Ulpius Nerva Traianus a.k,a. Trajan appears as a character and he was born on September 18th, 53 AD and passed in August of 117 AD so it must be after September of 53 AD.
It takes place in the years:
101 AD - 106 AD
We know this because the real-world Roman Emperor Marcus Ulpius Nerva Traianus a.k,a. Trajan appears as a character and he was born on September 18th, 53 AD and passed in August of 117 AD so it must be after September of 53 AD.
More specifically, the real-world Dacian King Decebalus appears and he passed in 106 AD. So it must be during or before 106 AD.
Specifically, the early panels depict the real-world conflict Trajan's First Dacian War, which began in 101 AD. So it is 101 AD at the start. One panel is specifically believed to show the Third Battle of Tapae, which happened in the real world in September of 101 AD. So it's most likely September of 101 AD at this point.
Eventually, Dacian ambassadors are seen bowing to Trajan. Decebalus started the fighting back up again in March of 102 AD. So it is now sometime during 102 AD.
Next, about halfay up the column we skip to the Trajan's Second Dacian War which begins with the sight of Trajan arriving again in Dacia (roughly today's Romania). This hapened in the real world in the summer of 105 AD.
Finally, the images include the conclusion of Trajan's Second Dacian War, which happened in the real world in 106 AD. So it is 106 AD at the end.
