EL JEM/THYSDRUS
Inside the amphitheatre
The arena is 65 metres long and 39 metres wide, large enough to host more than one show at a time. Note inside the amphitheatre that the decorations are rather crude. This was because the stone used was too soft for fine sculpture.
The upper part of the tiers were used as a sort of VIP tribune, where roofed rooms allowed hiding from the hot sun.
