it owes its name to the daisies, poppies, and meadow flowers that once adorned the square. Typical, the market that takes place every morning since ancient times. The square was not only a place of business or pleasure, but also a place of capital executions. At the center of the square stands the statue of the philosopher Giordano Bruno, burned at the stake for heresy on February 17th 1600 at this point. Now it is also a place of night life

The Colosseum or Amphitheatrum Flavium is the largest amphitheater in the world, capable of containing an estimated number of spectators between 50,000 and 75,000 units. Its construction was started by Vespasian in 72 AD. The name "Colosseum" only spread in the Middle Ages. In ancient times it was used for gladiatorial shows and other public events (hunting shows, re-enactments of famous battles, and dramas based on classical mythology). The tradition that wants it to be a place of martyrdom of Christians is groundless. The entrance ticket is valid for 2 days, costs 12.00 euro and allows to visit the Colosseum, the Roman Forum and the Palatine Hill.

After Augustus, who symbolically chose the hill as a place for his own home, the Palatine became the seat of the imperial palaces.
