![A marble bust of the Roman Emperor Traianus Decius from the Capitoline Museum in Italy. He ruled Rome for 2 short years between 249 to 251 AD before he was killed in a campaign against the invading Goths--who had ravaged the Roman province of Thrace--in the swamps of Dobrudja in eastern Romania/Bulgaria.
