Roman amphitheatre in portugal - Lusitano - 07-15-2008

Last 29th of June in Bobadela, Portugal there was the official opening of a roman amphitheatre in Portugal.

Its the only one known in Portugal, I had the privilege of making gladiatorial combat in there in the opening.

The only picture i was able to get (at the moment) was this one

A curious thing was the flooring, they used the same material they found at the excavations, i believe it is granitic gravel.

Due the my knew line of work i've been away from home for long periods of time and unable to use a computer with internet connection, so i'll post more stuff as i get it

Could you tell us how much of this amphitheater is original and how much is reconstruction?
