Description
Traces of History by Andrea Mazzocchetti
The traces of history emerges from the Imperial Forum of Rome, true mirror of what was the Roman Empire. Columns, arches, bas-reliefs, the remains of ancient temples and ancient squares, streets, the remains of an empire that dominated the ancient world for centuries. And it was the epicenter of Rome, the Eternal City.
The Imperial Forums in Rome include a series of monumental piazzas built between 46 B.C.E. and 113 A.D. They are considered to have been the hub of Ancient Rome�s political activities, and they were eventually accompanied by other structures over the course of centuries.
The first building encountered in this impressive complex is the Forum of Caesar. This piazza, which was built for Julius Caesar's propaganda, was inaugurated in 46 B.C.E. and was completed by Emperor Augustus. The piazza has two porticoes on the east and west sides, while a temple dedicated to Venus Genitrix dominates the far end.
