Construction began in ~70-72 CE in the reign of Titus Flavius Vespasianus or Vespasian, and was finished (and opened) in 80 CE in the reign of Titus, or his birth name: Titus Flavius Vespasianus, with further modifications made during the reign of Titus Flavius Dominitianus, or Domitian.
These three emperors form the Flavian Dynasty, and explains the original name of the Colosseum: Amphitheatrum Flavium, or the Flavian Amphitheatre.
