Greetings all,

On this day we commemorate the victorious Constantine I entering the City of Rome after the Battle of the Milvian Bridge on October 29 in 312 AD:

He was acclaimed by cheering crowds in a grand adventus ceremony. Rome was hastily decorated for the occasion, and Constantine was met by a welcoming procession which welcomed him into the city. A panegyric was made in his honor and public games and feasts were held.

-Marcus Cassius Julianus
