Tuesday 16th - 8th Blog

REFLECTION

After losing three of my Blogs I'm finding it difficult to retrace what I had written on my other Blogs. I have lost three of my blogs and a large variety of primary source information. I now must complete my blogs before i can restart on Google Earth Tour, this has been very frustrating in losing my blogs.

INFORMATION

Stadium of Domitian

The Stadium of Domitian also known as the Circus Agonalis. Agon translating to games in the English language also the the word of agony. The Stadium of Domitian was a major sports venue positioned to the North of Campus Martius in Rome. The Stadium was commissioned around 80AD by the Emperor Titus Flavius Domitianus as a gift to the people of Rome. The stadium is 160m long and well under ground level. Although the Stadium was built to hold games it is unlikely that Chariot races were held. The Stadium was built around the time the Palace of Domitian.
