Description   

The coordinates are for the centre of the conserved part of the Amphitheatre,

so to get there, there is a small admission fee (200 lek at time of publication)

The Amphitheatre was built in 100Ad or so, for gladiatorial fighting, and general Roman bloodlust.

It is 120 metres on it longest axis.. Big enough to accommodate chariots, and beast-fights. The ground level today is 2m higher than it would have been when built.

Task to log.
From GZ, imagine you are gladiator and take and post selfie with the grandstand in background.
(If there are more of you than one, you can act out your favourite gladiator scene)

For the password you will need to look at one of the lamps on the edge of the arena.  On the face are two words and a number. The password is the second word. (Case sensitive)
