Uncovering the Colosseum's Secrets: Wild beast, Naval Battles and Gladiators | SLICE EXPERTS

Sea battles in the morning and gladiator fights in the afternoon with wild beasts magically appearing in the arena? So says ancient Roman texts, but are these claims militaristic propaganda? A subterranean archaeologist investigates tunnels to see how the Colosseum could be flooded. And architects, engineers, and builders construct a lift and trap door system to attempt the release of a wolf into the most famous amphitheater in the world for the first time in 1500 years.
