Summary

[edit]
Description
English: The part of the North Decumanus at the spot where the theatre stands an impressive flight of stairs leads up to it. The North Theatre, built in 164 or 165 as a bouleuterion, a place of assembly for the representatives of local tribes who could vote. In the first quarter of the third century it was instead used as an odeon. To the originally 800 seats another 800 were added, building an extra 8 rows, a feat of architecture which explains the pronounced divide between the two groups of seats. In front of the theatre ran the North Decumanus, at the spot where the theatre stands an impressive flight of stairs leads up to it.
