Built between 70-80 AD under the emperors Vespasian and Titus, the Colosseum was originally known as the Flavian Amphitheater. It was the largest amphitheater ever constructed, capable of seating up to 50,000 spectators.
The Colosseum hosted gladiatorial contests, animal hunts, and public spectacles. Its intricate design included a complex system of vaults, allowing easy access for the crowds and facilitating the quick filling and emptying of the arena.
