Tlos amphitheatre in turkey
Amphitheatre - A large Roman era theatre with 34 rows of seats. A portion of the stage building still stands and its many highly-decorated carvings are scattered about. An inscription records donations for the theatre from private citizens, ranging from 3,000 denarii by the priest of Dionysus and high priest of the Cabiria to lesser donations of 100 denarii. The famous philanthropist Opramoas also made a very large donation for the theatre. It is also known from inscriptions that the theatre was under construction for at least 150 years.
