The principal ancient writer the Greek and

who in his work on architecture gives a detailed
description OF the construction Of the Greek and
Roman theatres. The difference in construction
between the two was due in part 10 the absence
OF chorus in the Roman plays. which allowed the
semicircular floor IN front of the stage TO be oc-
cupied by the spectators; while In the Greek the
atre the floor was like horseshoe, and the or
chestra space used by the chorus for It's
dances and marcncs Vetruvious makes a raised
stage in front OF the back stage wall a con-
spicuous feature of both theatres, and modern au-
thorities on the Greek theatres that are known
have followed him. Most OF the Greek theatres
whose ruins are now extinct rebuilt and re-
modelled after the classical period so that they
really do exhibit raised stage; while the originally
circular form or the orchestra, Whlch II most per
fectly preserved at Epidouros, was changed TO a
horseshoe or semi-circular form by the advancing
