Listen "45. Augustus: The Man and His Mausoleum"
Episode Synopsis
Today we discuss the Mausoleum of Augustus, the huge and once-beautiful funeral monument Augustus built for himself and his family. As the Altar of Peace was an apt symbol of Augustus's claim to have brought the blessings of peace to Rome, so the Mausoleum is a visual reminder that he became Rome's first Emperor and passed that power down in the Julio-Claudian Dynasty.
