EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative ancient Roman fresco, we witness a pivotal moment in history as Emperor Trajan (A.D. 53-117) bestows a royal diadem upon Partamaspartes, also known as Parthenaspates, designating him as the new king of Parthia, an influential Asian nation. The scene is set against a backdrop of grandeur and opulence, with Trajan, dressed in the regal toga and adorned with the laurel wreath of victory, seated on a raised throne. The new king, clad in Eastern attire and adorned with a golden crown, bows in reverence before his Roman benefactor. The year was A.D. 116, and the Roman Empire, under Trajan's able leadership, had recently achieved a significant victory against the Parthians in the Battle of Dura Europus. This triumphant moment marked the beginning of a new era in Parthian history, as the Romans sought to extend their influence eastward. Trajan's appointment of a friendly and compliant ruler in Parthia was a strategic move aimed at maintaining peace and stability in the region. The intricate details of the fresco reveal the rich symbolism of the event. The Roman eagle, a symbol of power and authority, perches on a column behind Trajan, while the Parthian sun symbol, a representation of the god Mithras, is depicted on Partamaspartes' throne. The scene is further enhanced by the presence of Roman soldiers and Parthian nobles, all witnessing the momentous occasion. This historical image offers a fascinating glimpse into the complex political dynamics of the ancient world, as the Roman Empire and the Parthian Empire forged an uneasy alliance, with Trajan playing the role of the benevolent emperor, bestowing the gift of kingship upon a grateful vassal.
