What are some uses for trajan's forum?
Trajan's forum was a forum civilium; that is, a civic centre. This kind of forum was used for public purposes. Since most of these purposes were catered for by the Forum Magnum (as the Romans called it, Roman Forum is a modern term) this forum had specialist functions. It was also a monumental complex designed to impress. It was built by Trajan to glorify his victory over the Dacians and was financed with the spoils of that war. The bulk of the forum was a huge (116x95 metres, 380x311 ft.) quadriporticus (a square enclosed by porticos on all sides). There was a colossal equestrian statue of Trajan. The size of the square may indicate that it acted as a gathering place for people. Part of the congiarium, the distribution of free grain, olive oil and wine for the poor, took place at this forum, probably in this square. At the back of the square there was the basilica (public building) Ulpia which had two apses at the opposite ends. It is likely that one of the two apses hosted the ceremonies of manumission (emancipation of slaves). The other apse was probably used to hold tribunals. On the other side the basilica formed one side of a smaller open square which had the 30 m high (triumphal) column of Trajan. The other two sides of the square were two libraries which housed the annals of the city, the archives of the praetors (the chief justices) and the archives of the censors, which had the list of citizens compiled during the census and bronze tablets with maps of public land. The emperor Hadrian (Trajan's successor) built the Temple of the Divine Trajan (following imperial custom Hadrian deified Trajan) and Plotina (Trajan's wife, whom Hadrian also deified) to the north of the basilica.
Why was the column of trajan built?
The forums in general were built as social and political meeting places. They had shops, banks, schools, libraries, and just really regular stuff you would see in a small town. The word "Forum" means "Marketplace". The Forums were also used to glorify the names of the rulers so that they could be remembered after the end of their rule. Trajan's Forum - though it was much more grand - was used for that purpose also. In the center of Trajan's Forum was a column that showed the victories over the Dacians.
