It's under the flight path of Rome's modern airport that lies the remains of its ancient seaport, Portus.

A great staging point for goods in and out of Rome and believed to have been twice the size of the port of Southampton.

A team from Southampton and Cambridge Universities working with the British school in Rome are digging out the vast area, but within it what they've found is an even more impressive discovery, an amphitheatre.

They think the vast round structure could have once held up to 2,000 people and was built to entertain VIPs and even emperors as they passed through.

Professor Simon Kay, the project leader said it would have been used for every kind of entertainment.

It makes this one of the most significant archaeological sites in the world today.
