Age Of Gladiators II: Rome Download No Verification

There are various archaeological publications about the unique cultural phenomenon of Roman gladiators [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7], [8], [9] as well as artifacts associated with them [10], [11], [12], though the recovery of human remains from gladiators is extremely rare [13], [14]. Alleged arena fighters were found only at a few excavation sites: Pompeii in Italy [15], Eboracum (York, UK) [16], Augusta Treverorum (Trier, Germany) [17], and Colonia Augusta Aroe Patrensis (Patras, Greece) [18]. However, the verification of these findings remains uncertain. In 1993, a gladiator cemetery was discovered in Ephesus, Turkey [19] (Figure 1a). Most individuals from this site exhibited trauma which supports the assumption that they were gladiators [13], [14]. The trauma pattern confirms what written sources mention about the rules for gladiator fights.
