Those who think it Colloseum are wrong. This is Theatre of Marcellus that was erected in ancient Rome in the Campus Martius - traditionally consecrated to stage performances. Space for the theatre was cleared by Julius Cesar, it was completed in 13BC and formally inaugurated by emperor Augustus, who named it after his late nephew Marcus Claudius Marcellus.
