The Monumentum Ancyranum (Latin 'Monument of Ancyra') or Temple of Augustus and Rome in Ancyra is an Augusteum in Ankara (ancient Ancyra), Turkey. The text of the Res Gestae Divi Augusti ("Deeds of the Divine Augustus") is inscribed on its walls, and is the most complete copy of that text. The temple is adjacent to the Hadji Bairam Mosque in the Ulus quarter.[1]

History

An earlier, 2nd century BCE Phrygian temple on the site was destroyed.[1]

The Augusteum was built between 25–20 {{sc|bc}} after the conquest of central Anatolia by the Roman Empire and the formation of the Galatia province, with Ancyra as its administrative capital.

It was first made known to the western world by Ogier Ghiselin de Busbecq, ambassador of Ferdinand of Austria, to the Sultan Suleyman the Magnificent (1555–1562) at Amasia in Asia Minor. Busbecq first read the inscription and identified its origin from his reading of Suetonius; he published a copy of parts of it in his Turkish Letters.[1]

Only the side walls and the ornamented door frame remain; the positions of 6 columns can still be recognized.[2]

The Res Gestae Divi Augusti

{{main|Res Gestae Divi Augusti}}

After the death of Augustus in {{sc|ad}} 14, a copy of the text of the Res Gestae Divi Augusti was inscribed on both walls inside the pronaos in Latin, with a Greek translation on an exterior wall of the cella.

The inscriptions are the primary surviving source of the text, since the original inscription on bronze pillars in front of the Mausoleum of Augustus in Rome has long been lost, and two other surviving inscriptions of the text are incomplete.[3] Squeezes of the Monumentum Ancyrum were obtained by the Cornell Expedition in 1907-1908, and have been the basis for epigraphic study including by the epigrapher Mariana McCaulley.[4][5][6]

Copies

A life-size reproduction of the pronaos, including the text of the Deeds, was erected in the gardens of the Baths of Diocletian in Rome for the Archaeological Exhibition of the 1911 Rome World's Fair. After the fair, it was put in storage until it was displayed at the Mostra Augustea della Romanità in 1937.[7] After WWII, it was moved to Room IX of the new Museo della Civiltà Romana.[8]
