The Imperial Forum Complex was ideally closed toward the south-east by the Temple of Peace, dedicated to Vespasian, and initially destined to contain the spoils of the Judaic wars as well as some Grecian art masterpieces.
The construction scheme and almost 'museum' quality of the Forum lead to believe that it was used as a refined seat of delegation with precise cultural connotations- the eventual function of the Forum of Trajan.
Other notable similarities to the Forum of Trajan were the location of the apsidal piazza at the bottom of the Portico and the worship statue located in the apse.
