The word stadium was an ancient Greek measurement, about 180m/607ft long. It set the standard and size of all future stadiums. This is the best preserved of such kind from the classical era. It could seat 30,000 people. Boxing and wrestling matches were held in the Greek time, more bloody sports in the Roman period, and concerts after 5th century AD.
