Roman theatre of Bosra with the Arabic numeral “2”. It was built in either the second quarter or the second half of the second century AD, and is constructed of black basalt. It has been erected outside the walls of the town, but was later completely enclosed by an Ayyūbid fortress. The theatre is 102 metres across and has seating for about 15,000 people; it is thus among the largest of the Ancient Roman civilisation. It is also one of the best preserved. Today, it is a major archaeological site and has been declared by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site.
