Well-preserved oval mound that once hosted gladiatorial combat and military processions. This amphitheater was built for the Roman forces at Isca around AD 90 and would have seated around 6000 spectators!
Imagine standing here nearly 2000 years ago, preparing to enter a stadium filled with 6000 spectators!  Maybe you were parading after a successful military campaign, or perhaps you were here to fight for your life in gladiatorial combat.  Either way, it was a big moment in your life!
