History

The ''Fasti Triumphales'' were probably engraved in 18 BC, in order to adorn the Arch of Augustus, which had recently been constructed in the forum. They were contemporary with the ''Fasti Capitolini'', or Capitoline Fasti, a list of the chief magistrates at Rome from at least the beginning of the Republic down to the same period as the ''Triumphales''. Alternately, they may have been built into the wall of the

Regia The Regia ("Royal house") was a two-part structure in Ancient Rome lying along the Via Sacra at the edge of the Roman Forum that originally served as the residence or one of the main headquarters of kings of Rome and later as the office of the ...

, an ancient building that was reconstructed in 36 BC, which was the official residence of the Pontifex Maximus, and the site where the ''Annales Maximi'', official records of Roman history from at least the fifth century BC down to the second, were stored. The ''Fasti Capitolini'' were most likely on the west and south sides of the Regia, and the ''Triumphales'' may have occupied part of the south wall. Both lists were discovered by the scholars Onofrio Panvinio and Pirro Ligorio, as they observed the demolition of ancient structures in the forum by a local company of quarrymen working to obtain building material for St. Peter's Basilica. Some of the stone would be reused in the structure, while other portions would be used to make cement. Recognizing the value of the inscriptions, the two ordered the sinking of new trenches, in hopes of recovering additional fragments. In all, they rescued thirty pieces of the ''Fasti Capitolini'', and twenty-six of the ''Triumphales'', which they brought to the Palazzo dei Conservatori on the instructions of Cardinal Alessandro Farnese. The lists were then reconstructed by Ligorio and Michelangelo. With additional excavations, the number of fragments of the ''Triumphales'' has grown to thirty-eight. The known portions of the fasti were published in the first volume of the '' Corpus Inscriptionum Latinarum'' in 1863, and together with the ''Capitolini'', they form part of the collection of the

The Triumphal Fasti list all of the magistrates who celebrated a triumph from the legendary founding of the city by Romulus down to 19 BC. The earliest entries record triumphs by the Roman kings. The Fasti also include entries for magistrates who received an

, filiation, and cognomina (if any). Following these names are the magistracy or promagistracy held, the names of the defeated enemies or conquered territories, and the date that the triumph was celebrated. Roman numerals indicate those individuals who held the magistracy in question multiple times, or who received multiple triumphs. Each entry also has the year of the triumph indicated in the right margin. The years given in the ''Triumphales'' are one year earlier than those of the Varronian chronology. There are several gaps in the ''Fasti Triumphales''. The first occurs following the second triumph attributed to Romulus, and presumably would have included further triumphs attributed to Romulus, or to Tullus Hostilius, the third King of Rome. Major gaps occur from 437 to 369 BC, from 291 to 282, 222 to 197, 187 to 178, 81 to 62, and 54 to 45. The missing sections include three of the triumphs of Camillus, the entire period of the Second Punic War, and all but the last triumph celebrated by

Caesar Gaius Julius Caesar (; ; 12 July 100 BC – 15 March 44 BC), was a Roman general and statesman. A member of the First Triumvirate, Caesar led the Roman armies in the Gallic Wars before defeating his political rival Pompey in a civil war, an ...

Dates

The Romans dated events counting back from certain days in each month: the Kalends, marking the beginning of each month; the Ides, occurring on the fifteenth of March, May, Quintilis (July), and October, and the thirteenth of all other months; and the Nones, occurring on the seventh day of March, May, Quintilis, and October, and the fifth of all other months. Perhaps because these dates were remnants of the old lunar calendar, the Romans counted inclusively, so that the first ''day'' of the month was reckoned the first day ''before'' the Kalends. The last day of the previous month was ''ante diem ii. Kalendas'', or ''pridie Kalendas'', and the day before that was ''ante diem iii. Kalendas''. As a highly inflected language,

uses different cases depending on whether an event occurs ''on'' or ''from'' a day (ablative: ''Kalendis, Nonis, Idibus''), or ''before'' a day (accusative: ''Kalendas, Nonas, Idus''), but in each case the day is feminine and plural. The name of the month to which the day belonged is treated as an adjective modifying the day, and is therefore also feminine, plural, and either ablative or accusative. A few triumphs occurred in Interkalaris, or

calendar reforms in 46 BC, and inserted following February in some years. Some of the dates in the ''Fasti Triumphales'' refer to specific religious festivals; for instance several triumphs were held ''Quirinalibus'', "on the Quirinalia", and at least one was held on the Terminalia. The following table gives the inflected forms of the months used in the fasti: :Nominative (m. s.) * Januarius * Februarius * Interkalaris * Martius * Aprilis * Maius * Junius * Quintilis * Sextilis * September * October * November * December :Accusative (f. pl.) * Januarias * Februarias * Interkalares * Martias * Apriles * Maias * Junias * Quintiles * Sextiles * Septembres * Octobres * Novembres * Decembres :Ablative (f. pl.) * Januariis * Februariis * Interkalaribus * Martiis * Aprilibus * Maiis * Juniis * Quintilibus * Sextilibus * Septembribus * Octobribus * Novembribus * Decembribus Thus, a date abbreviated "iii. Non. Oct." represents ''ante diem tertium Nonas Octobres'', i.e. the third day before the Nones of October, or October 5, while "Idib. Dec." represents ''Idibus Decembribus'', occurring precisely ''on'' the Ides of December, or December 13, and "pridie K. Quint." would be ''pridie Kalendas Quintiles'', or the last day of June. After the death of Caesar, the month of Quintilis officially became ''Julius'' (accusative feminine plural ''Julias'', ablative ''Juliis''), and in 8 BC, Sextilis became ''Augustus'' (accusative feminine plural ''Augustas'', ablative ''Augustis''), but the latter month does not appear in the Triumphal Fasti, which end in 19 BC.

Peoples and places

All of the people and places mentioned in the ''Fasti Triumphales'' occur in the ablative case: ''de Samnitibus'' means, roughly, "(he triumphed) over the Samnites"; ''pro cos. ex Hispania'' means "proconsul of (literally ''out of'' or ''from'') Spain". In this list, the first form is the one appearing in the fasti, and the second is the nominative, or uninflected form. The suffix ''-que'', usually abbreviated ''-q.'', means "and", combining the preceding words with the one to which it is attached; ''de Veientibus Sabineisque'' means "over the Veientes ''and'' the Sabines".
