I set my quest for Prester John in the late 13th Century. The Prester John stories were current only from the 11th Century and unknown in the time of Charlemagne. Technically, if Prester John's kingdom was supposed to have survived from before the irruption of Islam in the 7th Century it ought to have existed in the 8th and 9th, but I prefer to avoid the literary anachronism.
