"The Momentum Ancyranum" is a foundational historical document representing the definitive autobiographical record of Augustus, the first Roman Emperor. This work, traditionally known as the "Res Gestae Divi Augusti", provides a firsthand account of the achievements, honors, and public expenditures of Augustus throughout his long and transformative reign. Discovered inscribed on the walls of the Temple of Augustus and Rome in Ancyra, this text serves as a crucial primary source for understanding the transition from the Roman Republic to the Principate.

The narrative details Augustus's military conquests, his extensive program of public works, and his personal benefactions to the Roman citizenry. It offers a unique perspective on how the Emperor wished to be remembered by posterity, framing his consolidation of power as a restoration of the Republic and a period of stability known as the Pax Romana. This work remains an essential resource for those interested in classical studies, epigraphy, and ancient political history. Through its meticulous documentation of administrative and legislative acts, "The Momentum Ancyranum" stands as one of the most significant inscriptions survived from the classical world.
