The Roman Theatre of Mérida is a construction promoted by the consul Vipsanius Agrippa in the Roman town of Emerita Augusta, current Mérida, Spain. It was constructed in the years 16 and 15 BC.
The theater has undergone several renovations, most importantly, at the end of the 1st century or early 2nd century, possibly during the reign of Emperor Trajan, when he got up front or in front of the current scene and the other in time of Constantine between 330 and 340, with new-decorative architectural elements and built a walkway around the monument. After the abandonment led by Christianity because of the immorality of the theater, it is abandoned and covered with earth, leaving visible only the upper tiers of seats (summa cavea). The popular imagination called "The Seven Chairs", where tradition says she sat in several Moorish kings to decide the fate of the city.
