History
Intramural amphitheater located within the military sector on the north side of Dura-Europos. Built on the site of the former Bath F3, which was destroyed by fire. The amphitheater's dedication in 216 CE is attested by an inscription found fallen from above entrance C on the south side of the amphitheater.
