Footnote 1 – Iter Principis: Hadrian’s Imperial Tour
On the question of whether Hadrian founded Aelia Capitolina in 130 C.E., on this trip, or in 136 C.E., after the Second Jewish Revolt, see “Aelia Capitolina: Jerusalem No More,” in this issue. That Hadrian is known to have founded other colonies during his iter principis provides further support for the earlier date.
