Le theatre romain

Discovered in 1964, after 30 years of excavation, this well-preserved ancient Roman Theatre with marble seats, galleries and sections of mosaic flooring, was probably a roofed theatre used for musical performance and based on the inscription carved on the seats, wrestling contest. The theatre had a capacity of 700-800 seats and in Ptolemaic times it was the Park of Pan, a pleasure garden surrounded by Roman villas and baths
