Anfiteatro de Mérida

O Anfiteatro Romano de Mérida, construído por volta de 8 a.C., durante o reinado do imperador Augusto, é um magnífico exemplo da arquitetura e engenharia romanas dedicadas ao entretenimento público. Com capacidade para cerca de 15.000 espetadores, este monumento de planta elíptica, construído em opus caementicium e silhares de granito, acolhia lutas de gladiadores, espetáculos com animais e outros divertimentos populares. A sua estrutura, bem preservada, permite observar a arena central (originalmente coberta de areia), as arquibancadas (cavea) divididas em três sectores (ima, media e summa cavea) que refletem a estratificação social romana, e os acessos (vomitoria). A arena, com 64 por 41 metros, era separada das bancadas por um pódio de 2,5 metros de altura. O Anfiteatro, com o Teatro Romano e outros monumentos de Mérida, integra o Conjunto Arqueológico de Mérida, declarado Património Mundial pela UNESCO em 1993, constituindo um testemunho excecional da antiga Augusta Emerita, capital da província romana da Lusitânia. O seu excelente estado de conservação permite-nos compreender as técnicas construtivas romanas e a vida social, cultural e política do Império Romano na Península Ibérica.

The Roman Amphitheater of Mérida, built around 8 BC, during the reign of Emperor Augustus, is a magnificent example of Roman architecture and engineering dedicated to public entertainment. With capacity for about 15,000 spectators, this elliptical monument, built in opus caementicium and granite ashlars, hosted gladiator fights, shows with animals and other popular amusements. Its well-preserved structure allows us to observe the central arena (originally covered with sand), the bleachers (cavea) divided into three sectors (ima, media and summa cavea) that reflect Roman social stratification, and the accesses (vomitoria). The arena, measuring 64 by 41 meters, was separated from the benches by a 2.5-meter-high podium. The Amphitheater, along with the Roman Theater and other monuments of Mérida, is part of the Archaeological Ensemble of Mérida, declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1993, constituting an exceptional testimony of the ancient Augusta Emerita, capital of the Roman province of Lusitania. Its excellent state of conservation allows us to understand the Roman construction techniques and the social, cultural and political life of the Roman Empire in the Iberian Peninsula.
