During excavations for a new apartment building near Kaiseraugst, Switzerland, a bronze panther figurine was discovered. The excavations were part of the Augusta Raurica, a thriving Roman city between the first and third centuries AD. The city, despite its peak population of only 20,000 inhabitants, did have a large amphitheater (pictured below).
