The archæology of Rome, Part 7

Note 199 — THE FLAVIAN AMPHITHEATRE, COMMONLY CALLED THE COLOSSEUM. (continued 2)

Reading edition

I am indebted for this clear account of the amphitheatre at Pola to Lord Talbot de Malahide, who was there in October, 1875. The excellent drawings of Mr. Arthur Glennie, who resided at Pola for one whole summer, also agree perfectly with the excellent account of that remarkable building, which further contributes to illustrate the Colosseum at Rome. An excellent account of Pola appeared about the same time in the Saturday Review, but this is more general, not so specially written with this object in view.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
