  Tropaeum
A tropaeum was a trophy erected on the battlefield whereby the weapons, shields and helmets and spoils of a defeated enemy were put on display.
A tropaeum made of stone which is restored with many original pieces remaining is the so called Tropaeum Traiani constructed in 107 or 108 AD and dedicated to Mars Ultor it commemorates one of Trajan's victories in Dacia (more information can be found here).
On Roman coins the tropaeum is usually depicted flanked or being erected by victory or with the Emperor or Caesar next to it (a powerful symbol to promote his victories).

 Tropaeum Traiani
Absenţa ştirilor antice despre o comunitate creştină primitivă la Tropaeum Traiani nu poate fi socotită argument că aceasta n-a existat şi că doar prin voinţa lui Constantin şi a urmaşilor săi imediati s-a implantat o structură creştină în oraş.
Un baptisteriu într-un oraş roman de importanţa celui care este Tropaeum Traiani nu poate să aibă aceeaşi semnificaţie cu cea a unor baptisteria în mici castella de pe limes; comunitatea religioasă din Tropaeum, nu poate fi asimilată cu micile centre religioase din aşezările militare de pe limes.
Din cele ştiute până în acest moment putem afirma că odată cu recunoaşterea creştinismului şi protejarea lui de către Constantin cel Mare, la Tropaeum Traiani îşi croeşte drum o nouă formă de autoritate morală şi socială, cea a episcopului, ales de comunitatea creştină.

 QI Talk Forum | View topic - Dacia
The Tropaeum Traiani at Adamklissi gives a more accurate portrayal of the soldiers on campaign in Dacia.
The Topaeum Traiani is thought to have been made by army sculptors and the artwork is inferior but the depiction of armour and equipment is superior.
The Dacians' main weapon was the falx, a long curved sword or polearm with which they could lop off the arms and legs of their opponents, hence the extra modifications to the legionaries' body armour.
