The column of Trajan was completed in 113 A.D. to commemorate the victory in the Dacian War. This paper reexamines the meaning of two sacrificial scenes (86, 98-99), which have been interpreted as the pledge for victory. In scene 86, the emperor performs sacrifice in front of a theatre in a harbor, while he pours libation in front of the huge bridge over the Donau allegedly constructed by Apollodorus of Damascus in scene 98-99. Before the reign of Trajan, sacrificial iconographies for the pledge of victory usually have temple architectures in the background, which implies gods the sacrifices are dedicated to. However, in the two scenes, typical roman architectures are represented in the background. I would argue that the two scenes represent not the pledge for victory, but commemorating the completion of typical Roman architectures. Two scenes may also have a meaning of praising Trajan, who completed the great construction in Roman colonies. This characteristics can also be seen not only in other scenes on the column of Trajan such as constructing roads, military camps and bridges, but also in the inscription on the base of the column.
