Oops! My bad. There are a few minor wonders in Civ III, though not nearly
the same number as in Civ IV.

>Therefore, you should generally try to switch over to something a
little more expensive than a colloseum, such as a different Wonder of
the world. In fact, many people deliberately plan on this: starting
work on a Wonder that is currently available, with the intent of
switching over to a different Wonder as soon as it becomes available.

I think it's a good thing that that particular cheat (building one Wonder,
or a Palace, in order to switch production to another Wonder later on) is
gone, and that though I often used that cheat myself.
