Passage 5.12.6
βασιλέων δὲ ἀνδριάντας, Ἀδριανοῦ μὲν αἱ ἐς τὸ Ἀχαϊκὸν τελοῦσαι πόλεις ἀνέθεσαν Παρίου λίθου, Τραϊανοῦ δὲ οἱ πάντες Ἕλληνες. οὗτος προσεκτήσατο ὁ βασιλεὺς Γέτας τοὺς ὑπὲρ Θρᾴκης Ὀσρόῃ τε τῷ ἀπογόνῳ τῷ Ἀρσάκου καὶ Πάρθοις ἐπολέμησεν· ὁπόσα δὲ ἐς ἔργων ἔχει οἱ κατασκευήν, ἀξιολογώτατά ἐστι λουτρὰ ἐπώνυμα αὐτοῦ καὶ θέατρον μέγα κυκλοτερὲς πανταχόθεν καὶ οἰκοδόμημα ἐς ἵππων δρόμους προῆκον καὶ ἐς δύο σταδίων μῆκος, καὶ ἡ Ῥωμαίων ἀγορὰ κόσμου τε ἕνεκα τοῦ λοιποῦ θέας ἀξία καὶ μάλιστα ἐς τὸν ὄροφον χαλκοῦ πεποιημένον.
Statues of the emperors were dedicated there. Those cities in Achaia subject to Hadrian dedicated a statue of him made of Parian marble, and all the Greeks dedicated one of Trajan. This emperor subdued the Getae beyond Thrace and waged war against Osroes, the descendant of Arsaces, and the Parthians. Among his constructions, the most notable are the baths that bear his name, a great theatre shaped as a complete circle open on all sides, a building stretching out for horse-races about two stadia in length, and the Roman market-place, remarkable both for its ornamentation and for the rest of its features, most notably its roof, which was made of bronze.
