In Heraclea, when building the theater, the double purpose was planned: for performing theater plays for amphitheater games, incorporating cages for animals within the view. As in Heraclea, and in Lychnid orchestra she had a dual role, only she was probably in Hadranovo was expanded by breaking the first nine seats, when a solid wall is raised and cages for animals were raised.
