Additions

[edit]

Just wanted to add the Triumphal Arch at Volubilis in Morocco, and at the sites in Tunisia.

Photos

[edit]

I think this list would be greatly improved by adding thumbnail photos of each of the arches, perhaps as part of a table. AmateurEditor (talk) 16:54, 31 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I added a sortable table with photos and as many additional arches as I could identify. There was a slight formatting conflict with the RomanMilitary template at the top but, rather than delete the template, I copied and carried over relevant text from the Triumphal arch page to push the table farther down the page.

Listing order

[edit]

Should they not be shown in date order, so the development of styles can be seen? At present they seem listed in random order. (Lobsterthermidor (talk) 00:40, 3 September 2012 (UTC))[reply]

The list is sortable. If you click on the up/down triangles next to the "Date" column title, it will sort them by date. AmateurEditor (talk) 05:19, 3 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Not Triumphal Arches?

[edit]

I'm not sure that the Arch of Cabanes in Spain, the Arch of Campanus in France and Hadrian's Arch in Athens can be classified as triumphal arches. Perhaps they could be included in a different list including several types of roman arches. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Thucydidian (talkcontribs) 18:51, 24 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Correct. A number of these are city gates, which are architectural arches (as are many windows, for that matter), but not triumphal arches. - Eponymous-Archon (talk) 15:31, 19 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
