Entertainment: Gladiators

• Today, the idea of gladiators fighting to the death, and of an amphitheater where this could take place watched by an enthusiastic audience, epitomizes the depths to which the Roman Empire was capable of sinking. Yet, to the Romans themselves, the institution of the arena was one of the defining features of their civilization.

• Gladiator competitions were put on by the rich to show their power and influence within the local community.

Entertainment: Gladiators

• The number of gladiators to be displayed was a key attraction: the bigger the gladiator the more money sponsors paid and the more glamorous the fight and show

• Most gladiators were slaves. They were subjected to a rigorous training, fed on a high-energy diet, and given expert medical attention.

• Remarkably, some gladiators were not slaves but free-born volunteers. They were paid to be a gladiator.
