Yes only the buildings are imitations. They obviously don't continue the tradition of free tickets as in the original coliseum.. now people have to pay somewhere around $200 give a take for a ticket when in the coliseum tickets for free that's a big gap. Only the weld off or those like to get ripped off would afford to get a ticket nowadays..

@@georgeplagianos6487 in practice the tickets during Roman times are not inherently cheap. With only 50 thousands seats available, the tickets or the token of seat were given in bulk to select persons for them to give away as "favours" or reward to their followers. It's funny how people today whitewash history with our own naive perspective when people during Roman times were just as opportunistically corrupted as today. In truth nothing in this world is truly free... everything have a price.

This is a great video. I especially enjoyed the drone-like approach to the interior of the Colosseum. It is the best visualization I have seen of the inside of that amazing structure. I do wish that creators would place landscaping into these videos to make the street and city scenes, more real. Obviously, the Romans loved and spent a lot of money on beautiful buildings and structures in their cities. So it only makes sense that they would have trees, bushes, flowers and other plants to add even more beauty.

There is also a great gladiator Arena in Verona Italy, where they do shows, such as Aida during the summer months. It's not quite as large as the Colosseum in Rome, but it's still a very large structure for Roman times. It is similar in shape, and appearance, just not as grand, but it is older than the Coloseum. It's a well preserved structure as well.

One thing I noted when I was there was how steep the incline of the steps were, and also how big the steps were in comparison to other ancient sites I visited. You can get seriously winded walking up them if you're not pacing yourself, as they're much steeper than they look, and no, I'm not fat or out of shape, they're just steeper and more of an exertion than the slope of modern steps we're all used to.

On the other hand it gave each person a more unobstructed view probably, and allowed more people closer to the center. Besides the steepness, the thing that struck me is the elliptical shape of the outside. And that the center portion is not exactly elliptical because the even spacing of the rows of seats distort it somewhat. Making it more of an eye shape.

I went to Rome to see the Coliseum with my parents in 1971, I was 13. Only my mother spoke fluent Italian. Someone told her that the police at that time were to have all homeless people sleep in the Coliseum at night, and be gone by the morning when tourists started to arrive. You can imagine there was a certain odor about the place, I can equate it to the NY subway system. My mother commented that she could still smell the lions.

The Colosseum was always a very notorious area of Rome. Prostitutes used to stand under the arches at night. It was also the gay area. If you watch Bertolucci's The Conformist, the Colosseum is where the main character goes to find male prostitutes. These days it's kind of trendy, gentrification being the greatest force in any city!

It was also a nice touch including some pictures of the Parthenon in Nashville, amazing building, much easier for us Americans to get to and unlike the original one it's not only intact it has the statue of Athena inside. I wonder if the Italians ever give any serious consideration to restoring the Colosseum.

You must be an architect to have that kind of detailed architectural vocabulary and knowledge. What was the velarium made of, I wonder? Leather? How was it stitched together and attached, and how did it react to strong winds and rain? How was the tension maintained over such a huge space, and what happened when repairs were needed because of holes, etc. (the whole thing couldn't be taken down)?

Go on Google earth and you can walk around and even inside the ancient colosseum as it stands today. A creepy eerie but fascinating experience. Of course, it's broken down and beat up but still standing. It's like your right there.

excellent video! question: why are there so many holes in the wall (ceiling too) of the Colosseum 7:45 holes from original construction or subsequent damages
@ManuelBravo
@ManuelBravo 3 жыл бұрын
There used to be metallic anchors that attached the stone facing of the Colosseum to the concrete structure. In the Middle Ages those anchors were removed as needed, to be reused in new buildings as well as to fabricate armory and weaponry. That explains the holes all over the building.

My favorite would be the aqueduct of Pont du Gard. To maintain the grade over a distance of 50 km to allow proper water flow. I would love to know more of the engineering for that to be accomplished.
