Next to the theatre there is the stadium, whose major (length) axis is an extension of the theatre’s axis of symmetry. The stage building of the theatre was also the northern wall of the stadium, making both buildings strongly connected to each other. This specific combination is unique in the antique world. Note that in antique times, the stadium was not visible from within the theatre (as it is now), since the stage building (19 m in height) blocked the view.
