The ruins of Pompeii reveal more graphically than anywhere else in the Roman world the vital role that gladiators and gladiatorial combat played in society. The Vesuvian eruption not only sealed the oldest amphitheatre to survive from antiquity, but also grafitti, elaborate weaponry, stone monuments and paintings which all testify to the popularity of gladiators, several of which are known to us by name. In addition, the discovery of a training barracks allows us to locate physically the place of gladiators in the city. This book, now available in English translation, presents the evidence from Pompeii in full colour photographs, accompanied by reconstruction drawings and an informative text that takes us through the streets of Pompeii as the gladiators would have known it.

Her mom loved that she could tell such fun stories and keep them both entertained for hours. Today she was feeling like a faerie princess. She called herself Luciana and she had a pet cat which was her faithful companion who went with her whenever she had adventures. Copyright © 2012 by Chayada Welljaipet.All right reserved.
