Trajan's Column

 

is a Roman triumphal column in Rome, Italy, that commemorates Roman emperor Trajan's victory in the Dacian Wars.

 

It was probably constructed under the supervision of the architect Apollodorus of Damascus at the order of the Roman Senate.

 

It is located in Trajan's Forum, north of the Roman Forum. Completed in AD 113, the freestanding column is most famous for its spiral bas relief, which artistically represents the wars between the Romans and Dacians (101–102 and 105–106).
