The Colosseum, an amphitheater in Rome, Italy, was built in 80 AD (Credit: FeaturedPics/ CC BY-SA 4.0 /Wikimedia Commons)

      that's mainly because of all the electronics we have today the romans didn't have any electronics that we have today at all in fact they didn't even have electricity at all.

        That's really amazing! I wonder if this means Ancient Roman architects were better than the modern-day builder
