Machine translation of the original French narrative: The column that still stands in the middle of the Forum of Trajan was dedicated to this emperor by the senate and the people Roman for his victories over the Dacians submitted AD 101. Date of construction must be placed around the year 113. This is the first example of a column triumphant. It consists of 33 blocks of Carrara marble, joined together by bronze clamps. bas-reliefs forming a continuous series rise in a spiral from the base to the Mountain peak. The campaigns of the emperor are represented there with perfect reality and meticulous detail. We can with their help fill for the wars of Trajan the gaps historians. Dio Cassius claims that this column was not not just a triumphal monument: the emperor would have had intending to be buried below. And in fact, as well as remarks Nibby, the mausoleum of Augustus was full to the time of Trajan. But no one knows where the ashes of this prince were deposited.
