IZMIR, TURKEY—The demolition of 175 buildings in Izmir’s Kadifekale neighborhood has revealed the stage walls and entrance of a Roman-era amphitheater. The theater, which was studied in the early twentieth century by Austrian architects and archaeologists Otto Berg and Otto Walter, is thought to have accommodated 16,000 people. According to Hurriyet Daily News, the municipality of Izmir plans to restore the structure and use it for shows and concerts.
