Hadrian crossed the Mediterranean to Mauretania
Time: 123
Place: Mauretania or "Ancient Maghreb"
Details: In 123, Hadrian crossed the Mediterranean to Mauretania, where he personally led a minor campaign against local rebels. The visit was cut short by reports of war preparations by Parthia; Hadrian quickly headed eastwards. At some point, he visited Cyrene, where he personally funded the training of young men from well-bred families for the Roman military. Cyrene had benefited earlier (in 119) from his restoration of public buildings destroyed during the earlier Jewish revolt.

Best-effort ordering. Some events may appear out of order since many are only known to the year, but they are usually around the same period.
