In Ancient times the Coliseum was used to hosts entertainment. It could be flooded for water battles. It was originally called the Flavian Amphitheatre.
in 847 an earthquake hit the city of Rome shattering the roman coliseum. Parts of the arena fell of due to this and since the coliseum was made with the finest stone the remaining pieces were used to make other structures
The Romans began to build it in 72 AD. They finished it in 80 Ad. The Roman Colosseum gave it's last show, some sort of animal show, in 523 AD, the same year that it was partially destroyed by an Earthquake, and never used for entertainment again (while it was used for many other activites, manly religious ones).
