Colosseum, Rome (Italy - 70 - 82 A.D.) - VIDEO
city of Rome, Italy, the largest ever built in the Roman Empire, built of concrete and stone. Occupying a site just east of the Roman Forum, its construction started in 72 AD under the emperor Vespasian and was completed in 80 AD under Titus, with further modifications being made during Domitian's reign (81–96).
The Colosseum was built to give favors to successful legionnaires and to celebrate the glory of the Roman Empire. Its design concept still stands to this very day, and virtually every modern
sports stadium some 2,000 years later still bears the irresistible imprint of the Colosseum's original design.
