It is most likely during the 13th century B.C.E. that the events occur in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, Theban King Oedipus is the grandfather of King Thersander, a Trojan War contemporary if not participant. The Trojan War occurs between 1194 B.C.E. and 1184 B.C.E. That puts the events of the play at about 90-100 years earlier, somewhere between 1294 B.C.E. and 1284 B.C.E.
