Octavio Augusto
The first emperor of Rome
BIOGRAPHY
First emperor of the Roman Empire. He ruled
between 27 B.C. and 14 AD., year of his death.
He was adopted by his uncle Julius Caesar. From
that moment until 27 B.C. happened to be called:
Cayo Julio César Octaviano.
In 27 B.C., the Senate granted to him to use
the nickname of "Augusto" and consequently
happened to be called Cayo Julio Caesar
Augustus.
He became the heir of Julius Caesar, after his
death. A year later, he formed with Marco Antonio
and Lepido, a military dictatorship known as the
“Second Triumvirate”.
With the disappearance of the Second
Triumvirate, Octavian restored the principles of
the Roman Republic: the government power was
theoretically established in the Senate.
PERIODS
Several years passed, until it was determined that the republican
structure could be led by a single ruler, which gave way to a new period:
“the Empire”.
By law he had the “Potestas Tribunicia”, besides the appointment
like “Pontifex Maximus”. These gave him, sovereign control over the
civil and military administration, both in Rome and in the provinces. In his
capacity as prefect of customs, he was directly involved in the
appointment of members of the Senate.
The public treasury (“Aerarium”) was also under his supervision. In
addition, he was recognized with the title of “Princieps civium et
Senatus”. He increased his security, by creating a large escort known as
“Praetorian Guard” (“Cohors Praetoria”) under the command of a
“Prefect of Pretorius”. Occupy the Consulate until 23 A.C. .
The mandate of Augustus, began an era of relative peace known as
the “Roman Pax”.
It expanded the Roman Empire, celebrated a Peace agreement with
the Parthian Empire. After his death in 14 A.D. the Senate, divinized him
and was then worshiped by the Roman people.
His achievements, are reported by the Roman people in a document
known as "The Writings of Divine Augustus" which at his request, was
engraved on a pair of bronze pillars.
“The Writings of
Divine Augustus”
BATTLE OF PHILIPPOS AND
TERRITORIAL DIVISION
In the year 42 A. C., the Senate recognized Julius
Caesar, as a divinity of the Roman State: “Divus
Iulius”.
After this, Antonio and Octaviano, sent by sea 28
legions to face the armies of Brutus and Cassius, who
had installed their base of power, in Greece.
After two clashes in Philippos, the Caesarean army,
obtained the victory and both Brutus and Casio
committed suicide. Marco Antonio, used such battles to
belittle Octavian, since the two contests had been
decisively won, with the use of Antonio's troops.
After the battle of Philippos, the triumvirs, arrived to
a new territorial agreement, for the distribution of
power. As there was no more public land, Octavian
decided to face many Roman citizens.
In the end, there were 18 roman towns, affected by
the new settlements.

Forum of
Augusto
Ara
Pacis
CONQUESTS
- North of the Iberian Peninsula.

- The Balkan Peninsula.
THE MONTH OF AUGUST
The month of August, known then as “Sextilis”, for being the
sixth month of the original Roman calendar, received its present name, in
honor to Augusto.
There is a common belief, that August has 31 days, because
Augusto wanted his month, to be the same length as Julius Caesar's
month (July).
Sextilis, had already 31 days before the change of name, and
was chosen by its length and later renamed in honor of Augusto.

  • 1. Octavio Augusto The first emperor of Rome
  • 2. BIOGRAPHY First emperor of the Roman Empire. He ruled between 27 B.C. and 14 AD., year of his death. He was adopted by his uncle Julius Caesar. From that moment until 27 B.C. happened to be called: Cayo Julio César Octaviano. In 27 B.C., the Senate granted to him to use the nickname of "Augusto" and consequently happened to be called Cayo Julio Caesar Augustus. He became the heir of Julius Caesar, after his death. A year later, he formed with Marco Antonio and Lepido, a military dictatorship known as the “Second Triumvirate”. With the disappearance of the Second Triumvirate, Octavian restored the principles of the Roman Republic: the government power was theoretically established in the Senate.
  • 3. PERIODS Several years passed, until it was determined that the republican structure could be led by a single ruler, which gave way to a new period: “the Empire”. By law he had the “Potestas Tribunicia”, besides the appointment like “Pontifex Maximus”. These gave him, sovereign control over the civil and military administration, both in Rome and in the provinces. In his capacity as prefect of customs, he was directly involved in the appointment of members of the Senate. The public treasury (“Aerarium”) was also under his supervision. In addition, he was recognized with the title of “Princieps civium et Senatus”. He increased his security, by creating a large escort known as “Praetorian Guard” (“Cohors Praetoria”) under the command of a “Prefect of Pretorius”. Occupy the Consulate until 23 A.C. .

After his death in 14 A.D. the Senate, divinized him and was then worshiped by the Roman people. His achievements, are reported by the Roman people in a document known as "The Writings of Divine Augustus" which at his request, was engraved on a pair of bronze pillars. “The Writings of Divine Augustus”
  • 4. BATTLE OF PHILIPPOS AND TERRITORIAL DIVISION In the year 42 A. C., the Senate recognized Julius Caesar, as a divinity of the Roman State: “Divus Iulius”. After this, Antonio and Octaviano, sent by sea 28 legions to face the armies of Brutus and Cassius, who had installed their base of power, in Greece. After two clashes in Philippos, the Caesarean army, obtained the victory and both Brutus and Casio committed suicide. Marco Antonio, used such battles to belittle Octavian, since the two contests had been decisively won, with the use of Antonio's troops. After the battle of Philippos, the triumvirs, arrived to a new territorial agreement, for the distribution of power. As there was no more public land, Octavian decided to face many Roman citizens. In the end, there were 18 roman towns, affected by the new settlements.
  • 5. MAIN CONSTRUCTIONS - “Augusto Prima Porta”: originally a monument commemorating in the Forum. Made of bronze and gold. - “Mausoleum of Augustus” and “Forum of Augustus” in Rome. - “Ara Pacis”: in Rome. - “The colony of Emerita Augusta, present Mérida. - “The colony of Caesar Augusta”, present Zaragoza. - “Horologium Augusti”, (Clock of Augustus), in Rome. Augusto Prima Porta Forum of Augusto Ara Pacis
  • 6. CONQUESTS - North of the Iberian Peninsula. - North Africa, from Numidia to Egypt. - North of the Adriatic Sea to the river Danube. - The Balkan Peninsula.
  • 7. THE MONTH OF AUGUST The month of August, known then as “Sextilis”, for being the sixth month of the original Roman calendar, received its present name, in honor to Augusto. There is a common belief, that August has 31 days, because Augusto wanted his month, to be the same length as Julius Caesar's month (July). Sextilis, had already 31 days before the change of name, and was chosen by its length and later renamed in honor of Augusto.
