Roman Odeon, Irbid Governorate, Jordan
The Odeon is a small 500-seat theatre in Amman, Jordan. Not to be confused with the large Roman Theatre that stands right next to it, on the southern side of the Hashemite Plaza, while the Odeon stands on the east side of the Plaza.
The building is a Roman odeon, built in the 2nd century CE, at the same time as the Roman Theatre next to it. The Odeon was recently restored along with the nearby Nymphaeum fountain.
