It is the summer of 29 BCE. The civil wars are over. Antony and Cleopatra are dead. Egypt has fallen. The victorious Octavian returns to Rome. What follows is three days of spectacle unlike anything the city had seen. Three triumphs, three separate victories, three processions through the streets of Rome to the Temple of Jupiter on the Capitoline. The triple triumph will close the era of the civil wars and opens something new. It will send a clear message about Octavian himself, about his enemies, and about the Rome he was building.
