Roman amphitheater - Catania 

The Roman Amphitheater of Catania, a small section of which is visible today in Piazza Stesicoro, was built in the XNUMXnd century on the northern edge of the ancient city, close to the Montevergine hill which housed the main nucleus of the town. The area that today is part of the historic center of the city was once that of the ancient necropolis. The monument was built in the XNUMXnd century, the precise date is uncertain, but the type of architecture suggests the era between the emperors Hadrian and Antoninus Pius.
