Last time I spoke of the Flavian Amphitheatre, subsequently and more commonly known as the Colosseum in this free episode. The Flavian Amphitheatre was begun by the Emperor Vespasian and sponsored by the treasures looted during the Sack of Jerusalem by his son Titus. Soon after he oversaw the inauguration of the Amphitheatre as emperor of Rome, Titus died. Eleven years had passed since he had sacked Jerusalem, destroying its Temple, as general. After his death and deification a posthumous triumphal arch was erected in his honour, a monument which still has a profound resonance in Jewish culture.
A triumph too for Haterius and his polyspaston according to CLC Bk IV! 😉
As per the relief of the Tomb of the Haterii! I remember that polyspaston from school!
