The Colosseum was Imperial Rome's monument to warfare. Like a
cathedral of death it towered over the city and invited its
citizens, 50,000 at a time, to watch murderous gladiatorial games.
It is now visited by two million visitors a year (Hitler was among
them). Award winning classicist, Mary Beard with Keith Hopkins,
tell the story of Rome's greatest arena: how it was built; the
gladiatorial and other games that were held there; the training of
the gladiators; the audiences who revelled in the games, the
emperors who staged them and the critics. And the strange after
story - the Colosseum has been fort, store, church, and glue
factory.
