Abstract:
Trajan's Column stands in the centre of Rome as a proud monument to Trajan's triumph over Dacia in the early second century. On its 29 m tall shaft, a helical frieze depicts the events of the two wars which won the province for the Roman Empire. There are 224 trees to be found throughout this relief, 222 of which are native to Dacia. These trees have traditionally been treated as scene dividers and background material to the column's action. This article, which begins by exploring the identification of the trees in previous scholarship, argues that they are in fact crucial to the column's narrative of industry and conquest. The discussion of identification is followed by an examination of the numerous tree-felling scenes on the column as a metaphor for conquest. The article closes with a detailed analysis of contrasting representations of the two leaders on the column, Trajan and Decebalus, one an urban emperor, the other a forest king. By directing attention towards the arboreal population of the column, this article argues that trees cannot be dismissed as mere background detail, but play an active and significant role in the communication of ideas about triumph, imperialism and the conquest of nature.

Abstract:
Los resultados de la publicación de las investigaciones arqueológicas llevadas a cabo en el área de Palazzo Valentini, el propio Foro de Trajano y, especialmente, la existencia del templo que cerraría el lado norte del conjunto han vuelto a focalizar el interés de los investigadores en el conjunto. En nuestro estudio analizaremos la organización administrativa estatal que permitió la construcción de este enorme foro y, específicamente, de un templo gigantesco con fustes de una altura de 50 pies. El desarrollo de las obras requería de una perfecta coordinación entre todos los actores protagonistas del proceso constructivo (casa imperial, curatores, arquitectos, obreros, mercatores, etc.), por ello la reconstrucción específica de aquella parte de la obra destinada al templo nos ha permitido obtener un mejor conocimiento del proceso constructivo y, especialmente, del sistema de transporte de los grandes fustes.The publication of the results of the archaeological investigation carried out in the area of Palazzo Valentini, the Trajan’s Forum itself and, especially, the existence of the temple that would have enclosed the northern side of the complex have once again focused the attention of researchers on the premises. In this study, I analyse the administrative organisation of the State that allowed the construction of this enormous forum and, specifically, the massive temple with 50-foot-high column shafts. The achievement of the task required the perfect coordination of the whole organization involved in the process (the imperial household, the curatores, the architects, the labourers, the mercatores, etc.). The reconstruction, specifically, of that part of the project involving the temple has increased our knowledge of the construction process and, specially, of the transport of the gigantic columns.

Abstract:
The article highlights the results of the research of the Castle Bridge in Kamianets-Podilsky, which allowed to deepen the chronology of the bridge’s appearance back to the first centuries AD ‒ the age of Trajan’s Wars, and to insert the Castle Bridge into the context of fortification construction represented by the remains of the defense structures of the first centuries AD that were discovered in Kamianets-Podilsky in 1970 ‒1990. The search of architectural and construction analogues of the bridge has led to the reliefs depicted on the Trajan’s Column in Rome (113 AD), the analysis of which allowed, in its turn, to rebut the generally accepted by the world science attribution of one of the column’s reliefs (XCIX) as the depiction of the Bridge over Danube, constructed in 103‒105 by Apollodorus of Damascus during the Dacian Wars. The author suggest a new attribution of the image of this bridge on Trajan’s Column, interpreting one of the well-known reliefs as the depiction of the bridge (LXXXVI). She argues in favor of the fact that the Bridge over Danube was completely made of stone and had no wooden arches. It became the first attempt of Apollodorus of Damascus, the author of the dome of Pantheon in Rome, to apply the Roman concrete in arches on large-scale constructions. Using the reliefs of the column as analogy allowed the author to reconstruct the image of the bridge in Kamyanets-Podilsky for the period of the first centuries AD. The conducted researches also give grounds to consider the Middle Dniester region as a contact zone on the border of early-Slavic and late-Antique worlds.

Abstract:
No contemporary account of Trajan's Parthian War survives, nor were any monuments set up to commemorate his exploits in the East in the same way that Trajan's Column in Rome and the trophy at Tropaeum Traiani (Adamclisi) do his Dacian Wars. We rely almost entirely on the excerpts of Dio Cassius' History preserved by Xiphilinus, together with a few fragments of Arrian's Parthica, in order to reconstruct the causes, objectives and strategy of the war. Because of the scant nature of the sources, all three aspects remain the subject of much scholarly discussion and dispute. Here, however, an attempt is made to address the problems raised by Trajan's eastern campaigns from a different perspective. References in fourth-century sources shed light not only on the purpose and execution of the war itself, but also on the way Trajan was perceived in late antiquity as a valuable paradigm for contemporary events and figures.

Abstract:
This thesis examines the reliefs of Trajan's Column in Rome (dedicated A. D. 113). It explores sculptural processes and provides a full and critical commentary on the relief content. Section 1 reviews prior work on the column and explains how the present research was conducted whilst taking advantage of scaffolding erected in conjunction with conservation studies. Section 2 examines the role of the column as a propaganda monument, exploring the value of the depictions of Trajan's wars as a source of historical information. This runs parallel to an enquiry into the imperial propaganda functions of the project. These two lines of approach are set against the column's immediate architectural environment which suggests how the reliefs were observed by the public audience. Section 3 is a technical enquiry into the methods by which the column was fabricated, and the sculptures were planned and executed, based on minute observation and computer-assisted recording of the reliefs. Section 4 deals with each of the potential sources of information concerning historical events, warfare, architecture and the Roman army available to, and employed by the sculptors working in Rome. It concludes that input from the war zone on the Danube was minimal in comparison with models and verbal information available in the capital. In Section 5, the sixteen categories of human figures on the spiral frieze ('Figure Types') are dealt with in turn and examined in the light of comparative textual, artefactual and representational evidence with regard to their accuracy. Relationships with other contemporary monuments are also examined. The last Section reviews the place of Trajan's Column in Roman monumental art, examining its innovative features and-its influence on later works.

Italiano: A partire dal 2007, nell’area di Piazza Venezia a Roma, sono stati realizzati alcuni sondaggi archeologici per la costruzione di una stazione per la Linea C della metropolitana. Nel sondaggio S14, quello realizzato nella Piazza della Madonna di Loreto, sono state trovate una serie di strutture appartenenti a diversi periodi storici:dal periodo tardo-repubblicano all’età moderna. Le strutture, appartenenti all’età adrianea, hanno aperto un intenso dibattito tra gli studiosi poiché i tecnici della Soprintendenza Speciale per i Beni Archeologici di Roma hanno proposto l’identificazione di queste strutture con quelle dell’Athenaeum dell’imperatore Adriano, un’istituzione accademica a noi nota grazie alle fonti letterarie. Purtroppo le scarse fonti a nostra disposizione, relative a questa istituzione, non hanno permesso fino ad ora di proporre un’ubicazione per l’Athenaeum di Adriano.

Unfortunately, the absence of sources at our disposal concerning this institution have not allowed yet to propose a location for Hadrian's Athenaeum.

Abstract:
The Forum of Trajan featured late antique statues of the poets Claudian, Flavius Merobaudes, Sidonius Apollinaris, and probably others in an outdoor exhibition honoring those authors whose works eased harsh political rivalries. This essay considers the statues as displayed in close proximity to the sculptural reliefs on the Column of Trajan. Its visual narratives depicting military campaigns in Dacia corresponded to Claudian’s descriptions of battles, Merobaudes’s narratives of war, and Sidonius’s tales of military prowess. The chapter also analyzes the performance venues in Trajan’s Forum, built during the reign of Hadrian, where poets performed before elite audiences. The portraits communicated messages in keeping with the poets’ verses, which upheld the long-lasting image of Rome’s resilience.

Abstract:
The category of decor concerns a highly controversial aspect of the visual arts that has provoked much perplexity among scholars. Works of “applied art” of very different character—such as the column of Trajan, statue decoration of public architecture, Pompeian wall decoration, or Roman coin series—are designed with elaborate image programs but present themselves with a very reduced visibility. A solution to this paradox is offered in the notion of decor: not in the debased modern sense of meaningless decoration, but in the ancient meaning of adequate form. Decor serves the fundamental purpose of conveying visible value to objects of major cultural significance. As such, it has a certain autonomy as a visual order that creates distinction without close inspection.

Abstract:
The significance of communications was recognized as early as 2000 bc mainly in the military context. The most important information to be obtained was whether hostile forces were approaching. The solution was to use fire signals by watchmen positioned on carefully chosen mountains. There is evidence that in a city state inspectors were hired to look at the state of the early warning system and request maintenance if needed. An example of a link between Troy and Greece is mentioned in a play at the time. An early coding system that could code any message is discussed. Communications in the Roman Empire is shown in the form of a relief on Trajan’s column. The chapter ends with a poem by Macaulay that describes the fire signals in England indicating the arrival of the Spanish Armada.

Abstract:
This chapter deals with Roman representations of construction in three different media (epigraphic, visual, and literary) and explores which representational strategies are distinctive to one medium or common to different media. The first section deals with a range of building inscriptions, from plain to extremely elaborate, and analyses how they create a heavily stylized image of the construction process, drawing attention to the ‘madeness’ of the structure they adorn as a means of adding to its impact on the viewer. The second section deals with the representational strategies of Roman artworks which depict the process of construction (including the base of the Theodosian obelisk, the Haterii relief, the basilica Aemilia frieze, and the frieze of the Column of Trajan). The final section (‘Literary Memories’) is an analysis of literary accounts of construction: Caesar’s construction of the Rhine bridge as well as Pliny the Elder’s and Ammianus Marcellinus’s depictions of the transportation and raising of obelisks. A number of representational strategies are identified as typical of literary descriptions of construction.

Abstract:
Not all ancient art was made to be seen. Consider, for example, a sculpture of a rattlesnake, today in the British Museum. Its visible body is smooth and simple, coiled into three highly polished circuits. The mouth is daubed with red paint, open to reveal fierce fangs and an elongated forked tongue; the body terminates in thirteen rounded rattles. In between, the only decoration is the varied coloration of the gleaming stone. On the underside, the carving is far more elaborate. The rattles and then the ventral scales of the serpent are lavishly detailed as they spiral upwards. At regular intervals, dots of red pigment have been added to these hidden coils, ornamenting the rattlesnake’s belly. The three-dimensionality of this sculpture challenges display; photographs, casts, or ingeniously rigged mirrors can simultaneously make both the top and bottom of the sculpture visible for modern audiences, but it is likely that in Aztec times the serpent’s coils were invisible, only hinted at by the rounded forms at the base of the sculpture. One of over one hundred Aztec sculptures with documented carving on its underside, this coiled serpent was not an isolated caprice but part of a coherent and meaningful practice. Much ancient art was difficult to see in its original context. From the dedicatory inscription on the back of a Neo-Assyrian sculpture such as the Lamassu in Chicago’s Oriental Institute to the surface of the Column of Trajan spiraling out of sight or the gargoyles on medieval cathedrals, ancient art frequently thwarted the gaze. Many objects alternated between moments of visibility and concealment: displayed briefly, but crucially, at a funeral ceremony before being sealed within a tomb, for example; or stored in darkness between moments of exposure in procession or performance. Other images ended up hidden after complex histories of reuse and recycling. Still other examples hovered at the edge of a gradient of diminishing visibility—possible to see, perhaps, if only one’s gaze were powerful enough.
