EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Founding Ceremony of the Colony of Aquileia: A Historical Moment Preserved in Roman Relief The captivating relief on this ancient Roman art piece, discovered in the Archaeological Museum of Aquileia in Udine, Italy, offers a glimpse into the founding ceremony of the Roman colony of Aquileia around the 1st century AD. This significant historical event is depicted through the meticulous tracing of the sulcus primigenius, or the original furrow, and the delimitation of the colony's perimeter. The scene unfolds with a priest leading a procession, guiding a plow made of brass. The plow is yoked to a team of powerful white oxen, their strength and determination evident as they pull the heavy implement across the rocky terrain. The priest, an authoritative figure in Roman society, symbolizes the divine connection to the land and the establishment of the new colony. The founding ceremony of Aquileia was an essential step in the Roman colonization process. By tracing the sulcus primigenius and delimiting the perimeter of the wall, the Romans officially claimed the land and marked the beginning of a new settlement. This relief not only illustrates the historical significance of the event but also showcases the Roman engineering skills and their deep connection to the land. The intricately carved relief, with its vibrant horizontal colors, offers a captivating glimpse into the past, allowing us to visualize the people, their customs, and the European landscape during the Roman Empire's early days. This historical artifact is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Italy and the European peninsula.
