Gladiators sometimes had to fight animals such as tigers and lions. Most of the time however the gladiators would win because they had huge maces that they could swing. They had also been experienced with this weapon unlike the tiger or lion that would be stored in a cage all nervous. They would venture off to other lands and then they found this weird animal, to them at least, and they were like lets keep it! This was a normal thing for all the people of Rome to gather around and watch the show.If you don’t know what maces are, what they are is a ball with spikes and that heavy ball is attached to a handle on a chain. This was the typical weapon for the all of the gladiators. This is what made all the gladiators so powerful and strong. As displayed on the right. |
