Roman Amphitheatre, ChesterThe
Roman Amphitheatre at Chester is the largest yet excavated in Britain (though
only half of the structure has been uncovered). It lies beside the Roman fort
of Deva, and it served as an entertainment centre and training ground for the
troops of the 20th Legion stationed at the fort. The amphitheatre was built
around 86 AD, and could hold an estimated 7,000 spectators. Beside the amphitheatre
stands a shrine to Nemesis, Roman godess of vengeance. The altar is a replica;
the original is preserved at the Grosvenor
Museum. Details
