Triceratops existed from 68 to 65.5 million years ago. That was at the end of the Maastrichtian stage, the last stage of the Cretaceous period, which was the last period of the Mesozoic. In fact, Triceratops existed at the very end of the Mesozoic era and was one of the dinosaurs wiped out by the K-T extinction.
