The building dated to 2nd. Century A.D and in the 3rd century A.D. orchestra part surrounded with a high parapet wall to transform an arena. This place may have been transform to a water resistant pool, although it seems not possible technically. The archaeological excavations from the chapels, from the 5th century A.D. that were found in the archaeological excavations shows that; the theatre were transformed in to a holy place (open air church) in the early Christian era.
