Triumphal Arch

There is no greater proof of glory than this testament; a proclamation to the gods.

Rome was nothing if not self-congratulatory. The plethora of statues and marble busts attests to both its obsession with creating lasting images of its achievements for posterity. As the Roman Republic blossomed as a military power, the triumphal arch - or fornix - emerged, celebrating a general's victory in war, such as the one dedicated to Scipio Africanus following his victory over Hannibal in the Second Punic War. As an Empire, however, victory took another form. Beginning with in AD113 after his defeat of Dacia, Emperor Trajan established a new architectural style; the victory column. The columns were typically set on a square base and adorned with depictions of the conflict from top to bottom. They were often hollowed out also, with a spiral staircase within so that one could ascend to the apex and survey Rome from atop the tribute.
