The
The most illustrious members of this gens were the Ulpii Trajani, whom according to a biographer of Trajan, came from the city of [[Todi|Tuder]], in southern Umbria; there is evidence of a family of this name there. Members of this family were colonists of [[Italica]] in [[Hispania|Roman Spain]], where Trajan was born. They were related to a family of the [[Aelia gens|Aelii]], which had evidently come from [[Atri, Abruzzo|Atria]]; Trajan's aunt was the grandmother of [[Hadrian]], who was likewise born at Italica.<ref>Cassius Dio, lxviii. 4, lxix. 1, 3.</ref><ref>Aelius Spartianus, "The Life of Hadrian", 1.</ref><ref name="Tacitus 792">Syme, ''Tacitus'', p. 792 ''ff.''</ref>
