Arch of Trajan (Timgad)
The Roman Arch of Timgad (generally known as the Arch of Trajan) is a Roman triumphal arch of the second half of the 2nd century or the beginning of the 3rd, located in the colonia of Timgad (Ancient Thamugadi), near the city of Batna, Algeria.
The three vaulted arch composed the western gate of the city, at the beginning of the decumanus maximus and the end of the road coming from Lambaesis.
==History==
The inscription on the attic records the foundation of the colony on the part of Trajan in the year 100, but the decorative fabric of the monument, with the sides of the lateral arches detached from the wall, taken with a curvilinear pediment which creates two protruding and strongly contrasted lateral aediculae and the lavish decoration of the architectural elements all suggest a later dating.〔Pierre Gros, ''L'architettura romana dagli inizi del III sec. a.C. alla fine dell'alto impero'', Milano 2001 (Italian translation of ''L'architecture romaine. 1 Les monuments publics'', Paris 1996), pp.86-88.〕
The arch together with the whole archaeological site of Timgad, has been listed as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO since 1982.〔(Scheda su Timgad ) on UNESCO's website.〕
