Trajan, 25 January 98 - 8 or 9 August 117 A.D.
|Trajan|, |Trajan,| |25| |January| |98| |-| |8| |or| |9| |August| |117| |A.D.|, In 106 A.D., King Rabbel II of Nabataea died, after ruling since 70 A.D. Although there is no evidence of a pretext for annexation and Rabbel II had an heir named Obodas, Trajan moved Third Cyrenaica from Egypt into Petra and the Sixth Ferrata, a Syrian garrison unit, to occupy Bostra. It seems was some resistance from the Nabataean royal guard, but annexation was not widely resisted and there was little fighting. Trajan did not adopt the appellation Arabicus, as he did Dacius when he conquered Dacia, and Nabataean troops served as Roman auxiliary troops soon after conquest.
