Tillfälligt slut

Suggests that Caesar Augustus sought immortality - an eternal glory gained through deliberate planning for his niche in history while flexing his existing power. This title focuses on Augustus' Mausoleum and Ustrinum (site of his cremation), the Horologium-Solarium (a colossal sundial), and the Ara Pacis (Altar to Augustan Peace).
