WHAT DOES ROSTRA MEAN IN GERMAN?

Rostra

Rostra (plural of Latin rostrum, "(ship) beak") was in ancient Rome the designation for a speaker platform on the Roman Forum. The Rostra on the Roman Forum. On the forehead / longitudinal side are the holes, which were intended for the fastening of the ship's buckets. A front view (close-up) of the Rostra with clearly recognizable structural precautions for the reception of the ship's buckets. In the year 338 BC, The Romans defeated the tribes of the Volsians during the Latins and occupied the port of Antium (Anzio). The ships' snatches of the ships thus captured were brought to Rome as siege trophies of the consul Gaius Maenius, where they were erected on the Roman Forum, or, more precisely, the Comitium below the Capitol. This place was often used by speakers who spoke from there to the people as an elevated platform to be better seen and heard. At the foot of the Rostra was also the Twelftafelgesetz, a kind of constitution or fundamental charter of the Roman Republic. The Rostra was relocated during the revamp of the Forum Romanum by the Julians.
