The legendary Spartacus: Gladiator and leader of slaves against the Romans – Part 1

Who Was Spartacus? Spartacus story begins in Thrace, a region to the north of Greece, the west of Italy, and to the south of the Celtic tribes.  His exact beginnings are up for debate: Plutarch states that he was of a nomadic tribe, while writer Florus claims he was a mercenary.  However, what Plutarch, Florus, and only a half a handful of other relatively reliable classical sources agree on is that Spartacus somehow left Thrace and became part of the Roman army .  Whether he was taken captive into their service or offered himself as a willing volunteer, Spartacus served in the legions for an undetermined period until some twist of fate landed him as a prisoner in Capua, where he attended the gladiatorial training school.
