The amphitheatre was built c. 170 CE and later renovated in the 3rd century CE (Bombgardner 2001: 197). This amphitheatre was used throughout the early fourth century CE and survived until the 13th century CE (Bombgardner 2001: 197). The arena measure 64.30 X 40.20 m, and the amphitheatre could seat approximately 13,380 before the renovation and 25,172 afterwards (Bomgardner 2001: 197). Inserted beneath the bays of the facade were chapels, including one for the deity Nemesis (Bomgardner 2001: 198). |
