The Roman Stadium is located under the nowadays Shopping center in Plovdiv. Its rostrums were built over the Sahat Tepe and Taxim Tepe (hills). The stadium has the form of horseshoe and is 180 meters long and there are 30 000 seats. Some archaeologists think that here were leaded games from the Septimus Severus time (193 – 211 AD). The flashiest competitions were the Alexandrian games, which were just like the Greek Olympic Games. The main sport branches were the disk throw and spear throw, run, jumps, fight. The games were organized at every 4 years and continued a few days.
