It was the earliest and biggest stadium in ancient Rome and the later Roman Empire, located in the valley between the Aventine and Palatine hills. It could hold more than 150,000 spectators and was 621 meters long and 118 meters wide. When it was completed, it served as the template for circuses all around the Roman Empire.
