Roman Amphitheatre III

The amphitheatre may have become a Dark Age stronghold for a local warlord. The east entrance and at least one of the minor entrances were blocked, perhaps to make the structure defensible. Timber buildings were erected in the arena. Although the stones of the amphitheatre were stolen in the Middle Ages, the streets continued to curve around it.
