LacusCurtius • Trajan's Column — A bas-relief on the NE side

[image ALT: Much of my site will be useless to you if you've got the images turned off!]

If your browser can't handle imagemaps this link will still give you that close-up of the testudo, that rather striking formation of soldiers under massed shields in the lower left quadrant above. (Or see what the formation looks like as recently reënacted in England.)

Images with borders lead to more information.
The thicker the border, the more information. (Details here.)
