Created during Emperor Hadrian's reign in 118 AD, these reliefs commemorate Trajan's charitable program for children and the cancellation of public debt.

The sculptures display Roman ceremonial practices, depicting officials, citizens, and architectural landmarks that formed the center of Roman civic life.
