Stock Photo: Cross In The Colosseum Of Rome, Italy

ID 29222391 © 2circles | Megapixl.com

The Colosseum, the most famous landmark in Rome, is built in the 1st century AD and was the largest Roman amphitheater in the world. It hosted gladiatorial combats, spectacles with wild beasts and possibly the execution of early Christians. Throughout the Middle Ages, the Colosseum was believed to be a place of martyrdom and was therefore regarded as a sacred place. Near the site of the imperial box is a cross, which replaces an earlier one set up to commemorate the Christians who were believed to have been martyred here.
