Description
Known since the 18th century, the Grand amphitheatre has been the subject of an ambitious research program since the 1960s, revealing its colossal architecture and dimensions.
With a total length of 148 m, the amphitheater was built around an arena where gladiators, wild animals and hunters fought, and which must have been around 25 m high.
