Augustus’ Triumphal and Triumph-like Returns

Research output: Contribution to book/anthology/report/conference proceeding › Article in proceeding › Research › peer-review

Abstract

The transformation of the Roman political system in the first century BCE had led to a corresponding transformation in the function and character of the triumph, with triumphal processions of unparalleled grandeur being celebrated by the great dynasts. Augustus’ nontriumphal returns after 29 are related to his decline of additional triumphs. The Senate reacted to this by bestowing triumphal honours, linked to his triumph-like returns: they became substitutehonours replacing the triumph proper. Augustus accordingly initiated the process of defining the
adventus of the emperor.
