Roman AMpitheater that cannot be seen or excavated

Carmona Roman Amphitheatre dates back to the 1st century BC. It was privately owned until the year 1973 when the Counts of Water wheel donated it to the state, but it was largely abandoned. The excavation works were those of Jorge Bonsor, and in 1the year 885. It is on the same street of the necropolis, resulting in an interesting contrast... how close the cemetery and sand are together. Parking is easy, because along the avenue there is room to spare. For reference remember that it iss at the eastern entrance of the village of Carmona, Seville address, but outside the walls. The amphitheater is not visitable.

It can be seen through the mesh surrounding it, but you can not approach it. Most of the amphitheater remains still underground. Over the centuries the amphitheater has been silting of land and is surrounded by a series of buildings that hinder the power out to light. But this does not seem so complicated, because worse is the amphitheater located in Cadiz and is almost completely excavated. In this anfitetrao barely visible the existence of underground galleries on one side and most of the stands remain buried. Roughly one can get an idea of ​​how Carmo was the amphitheater, but little else. The best view of the assembly can be obtained from the terrace of the Interpretation Centre of the Necropolis, free access.
