What the Colosseum Really Looked Like in 80 A

What did the Roman Colosseum look like at its peak? In this episode, we rebuild the Flavian Amphitheatre from today's ruins back to its golden age in 80 AD — the travertine facade, the marble seating, the underground hypogeum, and the giant canvas velarium that shaded fifty thousand spectators. Reconstructions in this video are AI-generated artistic impressions based on historical and archaeological records. Some details, such as statues that once stood in the arches, are not depicted.
