it was used 4 entertainment people generally men) fort (AKA GLADIATORS) and on quite a few times they flooded the Colosseum and had sea battles.

The coliseum was used for gladiators back in the roman times. the gladiators were mainly slaves and they fought either against each other or animals. coliseums were grand places, there top was open (curtains hung on sunny days) and rounded and many seats were available. just like giants stadium. sides were covered in valuables, including gems such as a diamond rock. animals were poorly treated and went to the bathroom wherever they pleased, as you can telll the coliseums were not very clean.

The Colosseum was built at around AD72 and the Romans finished building the historical monument in AD80. They used it for Gladiators to fight other Gladiators to the death. They would have several animals under the building and they would send them up through trap doors into the ring itself. The Gladiators would fight the other Gladiators or the animal, sometimes they would face both. The massive ring could seat up to 55000 people maximum.

It is a tourist site and there are events held there. It sits in the middle of a four lane traffic circle. One of the surprising things about it is it is home to feral cats. They are all over the place there.

The roman Colosseum was used for the reason of taking gladiators and fighting to the death because the roman government approved of it and it was "entertaining" to the roman citizens
