The McMaster Column of Trajan Project was made possible thanks to generous support from Peter Rockwell, the Togo Salmon Roman Studies Fund of McMaster University and the Humanities Media and Computing, McMaster University. Peter Rockwell provided not only access to the images used here but support for the researchers who developed the database and introductory materials.

This site is dedicated to Claudio Martini, who passed away in 1999.
