- Gladiators: The Arena Warriors - History of Rome
#Rome #Gladiators #SeeUinHistory #History
Wiki: A gladiator (Latin: gladiator, "swordsman", from gladius, "sword") was an armed combatant who entertained audiences in the Roman Republic and Roman Empire in violent confrontations with other gladiators, wild animals, and condemned criminals. Some gladiators were volunteers who risked their lives and their legal and social standing by appearing in the arena.
Actually, the Thumbs Up signal was aimed at the throat to show that the gladiator should be finished off, and the Thumbs Down was a dismissal--"Let him go." This may have varied per emporer/organizer, and probably did since at some point the signals got reversed.
correct its annoying when people creating videos get facts wrong and the area only held 50,000 people not 65,000
@Olias I learned this from an expert in Roman history. At some point along the way the signals got reversed and currently you're right about the interpretations, though originally they were different.
It was thumbs down in a slanted way way which meant death. I could be wrong.
If there is one thing I really like about this channel is all the art and pictures you get
Haha, weird, we both uploaded a video on the Gladiators on the same day. An unexpected Colab but a welcome one.
Paid a visit to your channel just now, cool content subscribed and liked.👍
Thumb up mens he would die and Thumb down ment that Gladiator must drop hes sword.
What's the name of the video?
Gladiators Are Like Greek and Roman Mix together. And their Armor and Weapon are Awesome.
Gladiator classes were foreign and domestic styles, weapons, and Armour. The Armour was more used as a handicap to even gladiator classes out and about each have unique strengths and weaknesses.
But yeah the styles came from all over thr known world and represented beaten foreigners and/or glorious Roman victories or legends.
@@brandonbentley5453 how strict was they on uniform and classes would you see customised loadouts or was it like a gambling system to balance the odds.
The arenas were indeed dominated by men but women also appeared from time to time, although it was unusual and against all social standards. Some were forced, others made it for money or glory. Women did not fight men, they fought animals or even each other.
🤔 where did you hear that?
Could you launch a 1000 ship's?

@@dannyburch2122 did you watch the video? he literally says women had rare appearances and thats what OP is saying too
Nihad Tabakovic original posts?Lol,Reddit user I’m guessing
Gorgeous artwork.
*gladiators didn’t say “we who are about to die salute you,” that’s a phrase popularized by Hollywood.
As is your description of the thumbs up thumbs down, that’s a French misinterpretation popularized by Hollywood (immortalized in the painting that inspired the movie Gladiator), the only surviving records on gladiator fights marked the decision as what translates to “with a turned thumb,” there are no records on which way meant what , but the most generally accepted is down meant sheath the weapon and sideways meant execute, but again there’s no actual definitive answer to what thumb position took or spared a mans life
correct its annoying when people creating videos get facts wrong and the area only held 50,000 people not 65,000
@Mark no idea they should if its a lot better I just don't think people make things to last anymore everything is to do with money
Very informative and well put together. Ty👍👑
9:30
History is written by the victory but it is the readers who designed who was right
That's some logic you have there my boy.
this isn't unknown sagas but good anyway but am still waiting for them
Informative video, good job
-one correction, spartacus army was about 150,000 in total
Phenomenal 👍
Really good artwork
shame so many things wrong in this video, about the thumb. the saying we who are about to die salute you is also wrong its annoying when people creating videos get facts wrong and the area only held 50,000 people not 65,000 hope you read your comments
Can you guys do a video on Skoll and Hati?
How many gladiator movies did you watch to research this video? 🙄
You said Lanistas, I thought Lannisters (always pay their debts)
I see a fellow GOT fan :)
That's where they got their name, I bet.
Can you please make a video about spartacus?
Actually, Actually, Actually, Actually, Actually, the thumb being up, down, pointing at neck, or whatever else you've heard, is wrong. The only reliable written record says "with pressed thumb" the Gladiator's fate it decided. No one knows exactly what the gesture was.
Yes i play for honor, what about it?
Now the Gladiator Beasts from the Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG makes sense.
Are you not entertained?
They recently found that gladiators ate a lot of meat depending on where they lived.
You made the same historical mistake as the movie Gladiator made. Thumbs down actually meant life and thumbs up meant death in Coliseum gladiator matches
I thought the thumb up was spare his life. And there was another gesture for killing him. Thats wht i rmeber the tour guide saying at the collesium anyway
Can you do the Ark of the Covenant please
The name given to a Gladiator trainer ("Doctore") is only from the Spartacus show, and is likely a mistake. A more accurate name would be a "Lorarius" (from 'Lorum' meaning 'whip').
Looks like Alex Ross art style in many pics.
👍
Lots of wrong information in this one
Thumb thing is meant to be a myth.
True, we don't really know what the sign was.
Gladiators always hold a certain amount of interest. Very interesting and educational.
Could you please do a video on The Unhcegila from Lakota native american mythology please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You: "Tickets were sold" Me: The games were free for all
I had to watch this instead of 100%ing farcry5 thanks covid
3:42 can someone tell me this movie?
It is from the tv show Spartacus mate
@@michelledavison2533 thanks
The part with the 👍🏻/👎🏻 is not true!! Is it true that not all fights were ended when the adversaries died. And they used a forfeit sign like 🤞🏻

3:20 but not in the arena itself then?
Hi
The first guy to create a sword must if been so boss
The magic stick that makes people disappear
Love conquers all
at 0:39 in the background the fashis or 'godkiller' is just there, and this is talking about quite long ago time wise wow!
Do we have record of any black gladiators?🤔
Yes, there were black gladiators. Most were slaves from Africa though
@@MsFrostitute But do we know there names and storyes?🤷
@@cedricburkhart3738 Not too sure about that one, we unfortunately only know a few names of Gladiators today in general. (Let alone their story).
@@MsFrostitute I thought we had a lot of names scratch as graffiti all over the place. A lot of people were crazy about some gladiators. I ges the chariot driveres were more popular though.🤔
Turn off your TV and open a book before you pretend to put out information - Iugialo!
Actually the thumb up and down is the other way around up for death down for life
VERY INFORMATIVE DOCUMENTARY THOUGH THERE'S A LOT OF PESSIMISTIC FOLKS.
For Sparta
Like football in the USA. Awesome art work.
Why are there so many "history channels" like this one so full of biased, misinterpreted or plainly WRONG information?
Maybe it’s bad to say and think but wouldn’t it be sick if gladiator arenas came back
Only once or twice, thats not little, once a month is, modern human eat too much meat, indians not, 1 day eating nothing is good
First
Haha . So Gladiators also had a WWE script back then. Make sens as it is expensive to train and retain one.
in the future humans will be relegated to eating each other and these "tough guy" gladiators (as well as every 'modern' tough guy) would be nothing more than food.
Are you not entertained?
