CALAHORRA AMPHITHEATER "Calagurris Iulia apparently also had an amphitheater, whose plant was still apparent in early nineteenth century (WISEMAN, 1956: 96). At present we do not know their exact location, although several hypotheses have been considered. In the block of houses between street Theatre, Martyrs and the Passage Díaz, several gutters walls that seem to draw an arc that perhaps could be fossilized structure of the amphitheater, or perhaps simply that of a former bullring built in the nineteenth century.
In another attempt to find its original location, Gonzalez Blanco (1998:194-195) relates the semicircular path of Calle San Antón with existence in the place of the original shrine of the Holy Martyrs, since the spaces associated the cult of martyrdom have frequently used relation to the amphitheaters. However
, recent excavations on the site of the ruined Santa Casa have not found any other structures that may be associated with a building of such features (CASTILLO / GARRIDO / Anton, 1999).
