A vaulted passageway linking the stadium to the Altis in Olympia, Greece. The stadium at Olympia, built during the 4th century BC, was the largest of its kind at the time and could seat 30,000 spectators. Olympia, a sanctuary of ancient Greece, is probably best known for having been the site of the Olympic Games in classical times.
