It is the largest and last of Rome's imperial forums, completed in 112 AD, unlike the older Forum Romanum.

The Foro di Traiano is the largest and last of the imperial forums in Rome, completed in 112 CE. It consisted of a spacious square, the Basilica Ulpia, two libraries, and the famous Trajan's Column. It was built from the spoils of the Dacian Wars. Today, fragments of columns, walls, and pavements remain, allowing one to imagine its former splendor. It was a center of public and commercial life in Rome.
