The Colosseum, also known as the Flavian Amphitheatre, was a massive amphitheatre built in Rome during the reign of the Flavian emperors. During the reign of Vespasian, the construction of the Colosseum began probably between 70 and 72 CE. It’s on the grounds of what was once Nero’s Golden House, just east of the Palatine Hill.
The artificial lake at the heart of the palace complex was drained, and the Colosseum was built there instead, a symbolic as well as practical move. Vespasian, who rose from poor origins to the throne, decided to replace the tyrant emperor’s private lake with a public amphitheatre that could hold tens of thousands of Romans.
