We don't know when Aeneas was born, all dates before the founding of Rome (traditionally set at 753 BC) are unreliable, since they are prehistoric (before the start of written history).

But the fall of Troy is usually set around 1184 BC, and at the time of the fall Aeneas is already old enough to have a young son (Ascanius) - but also young enough to marry again once he reaches Latium and have more children.

Being reasonable, Aeneas must have been born before 1200 BC, and 1210-1220 ish seems a good estimate.
