Review:

The Flavian Amphitheater of Pozzuoli comes in third behind the Amphitheater of Capua and the Roman Colosseum when it comes to large-scale coliseums. The ancient oval amphitheater is situated at the intersection of two dominant streets in Pozzuoli – one of them leading to Naples. Divided into three levels, it’s similar to sports stadiums today. The ima is the arena level seating with the best seats, the media section is above it where the middle class sat, and the suma is the highest and least favorable section, where women and children sat. It is encircled by a wide, pillared portico. Tickets also provide entrance to Phlegrean Fields Museum and Cuma Archaeological Park.
