FORUM ROMANUM

Trajan's Markets were considered already in ancient times as one of the wonders of the classical world; today they show us only a small part of their splendour. In the II century Apollodoro from Damascus designed for Trajan, the great complex that included 150 premises used as shops. The complex is situated between Trajan's forum and the slopes of Quirinal Hill, exactly in the point where the cut of the hill was made, in consecutive terraces and where the Markets are situated. The total height of the cut of the hill corresponds to the Trajan's Column height. The façade of the Trajan's Markets is built as a big exedra, and at its sides two big semicircular halls are situated, probably used as schools or auditoriums. The most important part of the Markets is the Hall building, covered with six cross vaults; it can be considered the first covered trade center in history. The column, erected inside the Trajan's forum, represents the monument of the Dacha war won by the Romans in 105 A. D. After nineteen centuries it was brought to the ancient splendour through exacting and accurate restorations. The column is formed by 19 marble blocks, and a winding staircase leads to the top. The most important part of this historical monument is the set of figures that border it documenting arts and customs of Romans and Dachans, and the story of the fights between the two peoples. On its top the Trajan's statue was replaced during the Reanassaince with the one representing Saint Peter.
