Praefectus: Gaius Imperator Flavius.
Physically, Spalatum resembles any typical large Roman colony. At its center was a forum, where people handled their legal and commercial affairs. In the northwest corner of the city was an amphitheater, which could seat 15,000, and also formed part of the town's fortifications. The entire city was surrounded by a wall, which were upgraded several times during the Roman occupation. As would be expected from a Roman city of its size, Salona had two major temples, baths, shops, and houses within its walls. The aqueducts that brought water to the city and the palace still serve Split today. Salona measured 1600 meters long by 700 meters wide.
