Roman Imperial Images

Statue Of Augustus 2 meter marble statue, ~ 20 BCE. Augustus is shown in this role of "Imperator", the commander of the army, as thoracatus —or commander-in-chief of the Roman army (literally, thorax-wearer) — meaning the statue should form part of a commemorative monument to his latest victories; he is in military clothing, carrying a consular baton and raising his right hand in a rhetorical "adlocutio" pose, addressing the troops. The bas-reliefs on his armored "cuirass" have a complex allegorical and political agenda, alluding to diverse Roman deities, including Mars, god of war, as well as the personifications of the latest territories conquered by him: Hispania, Gaul, Germania, Parthia (that had humiliated Crassus, and here appears in the act of returning the standards captured from his legions); at the top, the chariot of the Sun illuminates Augustus's deeds.thoraxbatonadlocutiocuirassMars, god of war HispaniaGaulGermaniaParthia

Roman Coliseum Occupying a site just east of the Roman Forum, its construction started in 72 CE under the emperor Vespasian and was completed in 80 CE under Titus, with further modifications being made during Domitian's reign (81–96). Capable of seating 50,000 spectators, the Colosseum was used for gladiatorial contests and public spectacles such as mock sea battles, animal hunts, executions, re- enactments of famous battles, and dramas based on Classical mythology.

Roman Public Baths Roman public baths in Aquae Sulis in the Roman province of Britannia.

Porta Praetoria at Porolissum, Dacia (modern Romania) An example of the main gate (the Porta Praetoria) used in Roman forts. This gate would lead to the central plaza (principia) of the fortress. Marching through it and down "headquarters street" a unit ended up in formation in front of the headquarters. The standards of the legion were located on display there, very much like the flag of modern camps.

Roman Road Roman roads were a vital part of the development of the Roman state, from about 500 BC through the expansion during the Roman Republic and the Roman Empire. Roman roads enabled the Romans to move armies and trade goods and to communicate. The Roman road system spanned more than 400,000 km of roads, including over 80,500 km of paved roads. When Rome reached the height of its power, no fewer than 29 great military highways radiated from the city.
