Description
Reconstructive
axonometric
section
showing
the
Great
Hall
in the
context
of the
site
of
Trajan's
Market
. "The
present
entrance
to
Trajan's
Market
is
by the
Great
Hall
,
definitely
the
most
imposing
and
representative
interior
in the
complex
, a
manifesto
for
Roman
architecture
and
engineering
. The
term
"the
Great
Hall
"
is
applied
to a
building
laid
out
on
four
levels
starting
from that of
Via
Biberatica
. The
principal
level
is
therefore
the
second
floor
,
which
is
on the
same
level
as
Via
Quattro
Novembre
. The
Great
Hall
,
intended
for
public
functions
,
forms
an
independent
block
,
clearly
defined
and
circumscribed
,
built
to a
constructional
module
which
is
designed
for its
collocation
on the
ridge
of the
Collis
Latiaris.
