Colosseum - Secret #1

Go around to the left side of the building (when facing it).

In that dark back corner, you'll find a pile of rocks. Climb up twice, turn right, and jump over to the ledge that runs around the building.

Climb over the low block. Then follow the lower ledge all the way around the front of the building.

At the far end, pick up a large medi pack (1).

Return along the ledge to the rear of the building.

Climb on the low block, turn around, and jump straight up to grab the higher ledge.

Pull up and follow that ledge around to the front.

Take a running jump across the gap in the ledge and continue to the end. Then jump over to the flat spot ahead on the right.

Notice the well-lit cave opening below. (It's much more obvious in classic view.) If you don't mind missing a secret, head that way now (and pick up the main walkthrough at the CROCODILE PIT). Otherwise continue for a secret.

Turn so the building is behind Lara and to her right and the exit from this area is below and to her left. That rectangular cave opening on the far wall, between the jumble of rocks and the pool, is where you're headed.

Step off the edge and slide down the slope onto a dark, flattish block. Walk forward across the next angled block and step down onto the flat block beyond.

Position Lara at the corner of this block closest to the secret cave, facing in that direction. Hop back.

Then take a running jump over the steeply angled block ahead to land on the flattish block beyond.

From there, it's a simple jump over to the angled block in front of the cave opening. Enter and pick up some shotgun shells (2), SECRET #1.

Return to the cave opening and walk out onto the block in front of the door. Take a standing jump from the middle of this block to the flat block ahead on the right (i.e., back the same way you came).

Walk to the higher, outer corner of this block and take a standing jump (or hop back and take a carefully angled running jump) to the flat ledge between the higher blocks ahead. Jump up onto the next taller, angled block. Walk up the dark-colored slope.

Then jump through the V shaped opening on the right to land in the cave.

NOTE: If you miss a jump and slide down the rocks, climb onto the building again at the back left corner and follow the upper ledge around to the end. Jump across the gap and drop down into the cave.
