The Colosseum was clad in travertine stone with three storeys of arches topped by a fourth storey of pilasters and small rectangular windows. The arches in each storey contained statues of Gods and Emperors.
The two main entrances were marked by giant porticoes topped by winged horses pulling chariots.
The Colosseum is important for a few reasons. It was the largest amphitheatre (open-air auditorium with rising tiers of seats) ever built in the Roman Empire and for almost 2,000 years thereafter. It is considered one of the greatest works of Roman architecture and engineering. The Colosseum is also important as the site of gladiatorial contests, mock sea battles, executions, and other dramas and spectacles provided by the Imperial government for the populace of Rome in order to keep their attention diverted from serious issues.
