Answer:

A. True

Step-by-step explanation:

Trajan was one of the last structures built in the ancient Rome with the aim of serving as the forum platform upon which the civic and ritual business was carried out. This structure was built and dedicated to their former ruler Marcus Ulpius Traianus as aresult of his military accomplishment in war against the Dacia.

The Basilica Ulpia was a massive structure that was constructed as part of the Trajan complex structure which is famous for its gilded bronze roof tiles.
