Caesar Augustus
built 641 days ago
Caesar Augustus was born at Rome with the name Gaius Octavius Thurinus. His father ... Gaius Octavius, came from a respectable but undistinguished family of the equestrian order and was governor of Macedonia before his death in 58 BC. More importantly, his mother Atia was the niece of Rome's greatest soldier and de facto ruler, Julius Caesar. In 46 BC Caesar, who had no legitimate children, took his grand-nephew soldiering in Spain, and adopted him as his heir (see also adoption in Rome). He then took the name Gaius Julius Caesar Octavianus.

The Caesar Augustus statue, the gift of Moses Brown Ives Goddard 1854, was unveiled on the opening day of the college year, September 19, 1906. Mr. Goddard made the presentation at the conclusion of the chapel exercises. The bronze statue, which is the exact size of the marble original in Rome, was placed in front of Rhode Island Hall. In September 1952 the statue was removed to a new home in front of the Sharpe Refectory, and there Caesar Augustus still stands, unfortunately having been relieved of his right arm, which had already been replaced after being broken off during the hurricane of 1938.
