The modern concept of stadium is different from the ancient concept. Originally, in antiquity, a stadium was only a venue for athletics contests. The name originated from ancient Greece, and the most famous of them was the one at Olympia, which was used for the Ancient Olympic Games. The Romans did not have a permanent stadium (intended as an athletics venue) until 86 AD, when the emperor Domitian opened the Stadium Domitiani (Stadium of Domitian) also known as Circus Agonalis.
The Romans built amphitheatres, which are defined as arenas. These were venues for the gladiatorial games. The most famous one is the Flavian Amphitheatre, better known as Colosseum.
The Romans also built racing tracks, which they called circus. The city of Rome had two such venues. The Circus Maximus was for chariot races. The Circus Flaminius was for the metae (horseback races around turning posts) of the religious Taurian Games which were held in honour of the gods of the underworld.
