   Column of Marcus Aurelius, built between 180-193 AD, in Rome, Italy, commemorates emperor’s campaigns against Germanic tribes and Sarmatians during Marcomannic Wars.

   Standing about 39m tall in Piazza Colonna, it features a spiral relief depicting vivid and dramatic scenes of battle, including a rare depiction of “Rain Miracle,” where a sudden storm is said to have saved Roman army. Modeled after Trajan’s Column, it was constructed from Proconnesian marble and remains in its original location.
