Tropaion<\/b>, also simply called the trophy (tropaeum<\/em>) is a form of military monument erected by Greeks and Romans in honour of victory in the battle. It was usually a vertical pole in the shape of a tree with outstretched arms (later crossed with two sticks), to which captured military items were attached. The trophy was next sacrificed to deities for victory. <\/p>\n

Probably the most often tropaeum<\/em>was exposed to the public in Rome<\/a>. During the Republic, it was part of the political game and an attempt to gain fame and electorate. One of the Roman chiefs, Marcellus, personally made such a Tropaion and carried it on his shoulders, riding a chariot during a triumph<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The image of such a Tropaion appears on the beautiful “Gemma Augustea” from the beginning of the first century CE.<\/p>\n

Later, made of marble or metal, it took the form of a monument – an example is the tropaion of Trajan<\/a> in Adamklissi, erected after the victory over the Dakis in 109 CE.<\/p>\n
