Colloseum, Forum and Palatine Hill

This afternoon we did a fabulous walking tour of the Colosseum, the Forum and Palatine Hill. The guide was great and we learnt so much about the incredible history of these places.
PelancongI’m pretty sure some fights occurred between animals and gladiators. …contests called venationes ("wild beast hunts").
PelancongYes! I agree. I think our guide told us that a bunch of slaves and animals would be thrown into the ring all at once. It was survival of the fittest. If a man survived he became a gladiator.
PelancongThe guide said they were the beast hunters not gladiators- two different skill sets he said lol
PelancongThe variation of knowledge between guides is pretty wild LOL
