Intrestingly, the Coliseum (Amphitheatrum Flavium) was built around the time that Luke wrote the book of Acts. I can imagine that the morter was hardly set before Christians were martyred in this place.
I didn't realize how much has been done over the years to try to repair this structure. I was a little let down by the quality of their workmanship.
FYI
