Buried in All Glory
Originally this building served as a mausoleum, commissioned to architect Demetriano by Emperor Hadrian for him and his family. The original structure must have been approximately 48 meters high consisting of a ten-meter high square base that supported a twenty-meter cylindrical drum. This was surmounted by a mound of earth, adorned with statues and hosting evergreen trees, as a symbol of eternity.
