In the Roman Empire the coliseum was one of the biggest strucutres at that time. The coliseum was once known as the Flavian Amphitheater. The coliseum was being built when the emperor Vespian ruled with his son Titus. The coliseum was known for gladiators fighting and getting killed as entertainment to the common Roman people. What some people didn't know is that other rulers show their wealth and food and wine was given to the roman people on the day of fights at the coliseum.
Conclusion
Our conclusion for this website is that the coliseum was used for bad purposes such as killings of the slaves and gladiators. But the coliseum was also used to give food out to the porospectors. The coliseum was used for good and bad purposes but in the end it was only entertainment.
