    Ben, how in the name of Jupiter do you only have 77 subs?! Just finished In the Storm, such a good finish to the Eagles series, thanks!

    “Many of the things Haven’t changed in 2000years”. Well I’m glad the only thing that hasn’t changed is the Going to and leaving of the Arena by the general public, and not the Daily Entertainment inside the arena.😂

    i do not think they sell fruits and drinks to the crowd... thats too 'modern'....

      +Ben Kane how do you knoe that? its about 2000 years ago.

      +boonstase From textbooks - I refer you first to Chapter 5 of The World of the Gladiator by Susanna Shadrake (Tempus 2005). Textbooks like this will and do use the ancient texts, which survive from 2000 years ago.

    Spartacus never fought in that arena plus it held 60k spectators

      The ruins are Augustan, but they were built on top of the previous Republican amphitheatre in which Spartacus would have fought.
