AMPHI THEATER LIBYAN

Amphitheatre, Leptis Magna, Libya. by © Libyan Soup.
The site was used for 50 years as a quarry, and once the area was exhausted, an amphitheatre was built here. The structure is rich in Greek influence, unlike most Roman amphitheatres, it is built below the ground. The theatre dates from 56 AD and was renovated in the 2nd century AD and again during the reign of Severus.
