Trajan's Column Endures

Trajan's Column was erected in Rome in the year 113 A.D. to honour the emperor Trajan and to commemorate his two victorious campaigns against the Dacians. The letters inscribed in stone on Trajan's Column are model Roman letters. Trajan's Column still stands today and its lettering endures too, as the basis of the capital letters in most fonts. The Romans did not begin to use lowercase letters until after 200 A.D.
