This funny stop-motion animation tries, since a really fresh point of view, to explain how there was constructed one of the most enigmatic monuments of the ancient Rome, Trajano's Column. Under the animation, we will leave other video where the creators will explain us how the animation was done. Do not get lost it!

Trajano's Column is a monument raised in Rome on order of the emperor Trajano. He is in Trajano's Forum. It was finished in the year 114. The Column has 30 meters height, 38 if we take into account the pedestal. The column is composed by 18 big blocks of Carrara's marble, with beautiful bas-reliefs, each one weight is approximately 4 tons. An interior stairs allows to accede to the viewing-point.

Recent research sheds light on an ancient Roman mystery: how a monument called Trajan's Column may have been built.
