Built of concrete and stone, it was commissioned around 70-72 AD by Emperor Vespasian and completed in 80 AD by his successor, Titus. Used for gladiatorial contests and public spectacles like mock sea battles, animal hunts, and executions, it could hold an estimated 50,000 to 80,000 spectators. It stands as an iconic symbol of the Roman Empire's power and engineering prowess, and though partially ruined by earthquakes and stone-robbers, it remains a popular tourist destination and a lasting monument to Roman history.

Lavish palaces and residences were built, and the hill became synonymous with imperial power and wealth.

Its history is shrouded in legend, with the most famous story claiming it was a lie detector.
