Rome, The Colosseum 3

















It's kind of hard to picture what it must have been like back in the day. It actually had a complex, retractable roof called a velarium, and rows and rows of seats. The cheap seats up high were made of wood and have long since rotten away. The nicer seats lower were made of marble and have since been scavenged.
