Once hypothetically identified by some scholars as an amphitheater, this structure at Aeclanum is now understood to be a Roman macellum. See pp. 200f in Russell, Ben, and Girolamo F. De Simone. “A Town and Its Road: Aeclanum on the via Appia.” In Roman Urbanism in Italy, edited by Alessandro Launaro, 5:190–210. Recent Discoveries and New Directions. Oxbow Books, 2024. https://doi.org/10.2307/jj.9941113.15.
