No one knows how many men Spartacus had in his army at this time, but 3000 Roman legionnaires were dispatched to deal with him. But the more men he rallied to his cause, the more of a thorn he became in their sides. They intercepted and robbed caravans bound for Capua, and thereby were able to arm themselves and equipment destined of the Roman legions.įor many months, Rome tried to ignore Spartacus. From this encampment, Spartacus conducted raids on the neighboring farmlands and began freeing slaves. They and Spartacus retreated to the mountainside of Mount Vesuvius. Of the 200 gladiators that tried to escape only 73 made it. With his own natural charisma and the prophecies of his wife, Spartacus led a riot of his fellow gladiators against their captors. Spartacus had no love for that sort of celebrity lifestyle. Swords, shields, tridents, nets and armor for all made available to gladiators. The gladiators were trained at all manner of weapons. He had amassed an awesome record of wins, within a single year. With his military training, Spartacus became quite successful in combat. He and 200 other gladiators were trained by the school’s brutal instructors. Once there, Spartacus was enrolled in a gladiatorial school. Spartacus and his wife were sent to the city of Capua. His wife who was a priestess of Dionysus, saw this and took it for a sign that Spartacus was destined for greatness. While asleep a venomous snake curled itself around his face. Some say that after being sold to slavery he fell asleep in the gladiatorial pens.

From there, we know that later that year he and his wife were sold into slavery in Rome. Around 73 B.C., he was a soldier in the Thracian army and was captured by the Romans in battle.
