Re: Rome !
Lots of remnants in Rome. The Flavian amphitheatre, later nicknamed Colosseum, in the background.

Re: Rome !
The Roman empire at its height, I guess. It didn´t say when.

Re: Rome !
At least 30 feet of the outer shell has been removed, hundreds of years ago, half way around.

Re: Rome !
Thousands of tons of marble has been removed during the years, and used in other buildings in Rome. There is a small area to the right in the picture where they have reconstructed the seats inside the Colosseum. There was marble all around the place up to the highest level, the fourth, which was built of wood.
70.000 people could attend the amphitheatre one day. Some days as many as 5.000 animals where killed.
