The Campus Martius began as a military training ground but later became filled with some of the most extraordinary republican and imperial structures conceived by Roman patrons and architects. This book explores the factors that contributed to the transformation of the site from an occasionally visited space to a crowded center of daily activity.
1. 'The size of the plain is remarkable': defining the limits of the Campus Martius in time and space; 2. Gathering troops in the war god's field; 3. 'Very costly temples': the Campus Martius and republican temple construction; 4. 'Chariot races', 'three theatres', 'an amphitheatre' and more: entertainment in the Campus Martius; 5. 'Colonnades about it in very great numbers': the porticoes of the Campus Martius; 6. Between the Aqua Virgo and the Tiber: water and the Field of Mars; 7. 'A zeal for buildings': reshaping of the space by the emperors; 8. Conclusion: 'the rest of the city a mere accessory'; Appendix A: chronology of development in the Campus Martius to the early fourth century CE; Appendix B: glossary of architectural terms.
