The invincible king Decebalus, who preferred to take his own life rather than lay down his arms at the feet of the Roman emperor, deserves a place of honor in the landscape of this country, which he defended with stubbornness, audacity and pride. The Emperor Trajan himself was able to appreciate the pride of the Dacian king, dedicating the Trajan’s Column in Rome to the bloody battles he waged against him. After all, Trajan can be considered the heir of Decebalus, said Giuseppe Costantino Dragan, creator and financier of the monument.
