Spartacus was an escaped slave/gladiator who led a slave revolt against the Romans. He was eventually defeated by Crassus and crucified. That's all we really know about him. Historians think he was a Thracian, but that may be because he fought in the arena as a "Thracian" style gladiator. We also don't know if "Spartacus" was his actual name. To many it sounds like a professional name coming from Sparta or the Spartans who were known as fearless fighters.
Sparticus was an escaped gladiatorial slave who led his followers on a rampage throughout Italy. He made his move while the well-trained "crack" Roman legions were out of the country fighting two wars. He was easily able to defeat the mostly untrained,raw recruits who were left to defend Italy. It wasn't until Crassus wa able to gather and train a descent force that Spartacus and his men were finally defeated.

I am not Spartucus How about, "Here lies Spartacus-he's dead!"
The questions and answers previously given do not provide a reason for Rome's initial defeat by the army of Spartacus. The reason Rome lost the first encounter with Spartacus was Rome's expectation that Spartacus posed no serious threat and so the small force Rome sent to defeat Spartacus was defeated because Spartacus had 90,000 troops at his disposal.
Spartacus(Greek: Σπάρτακος, Spártakos; Latin: Spartacus[1]) he was the leader of the slave revolt against Rome i hope this helps.
The name "Spartacus" is a Latin name. It had no nationality as such. The rebel gladiator Spartacus was said to be from Thrace and also was said to have served in the Roman army. Many auxiliaries either Latinized their names or changed them completely to a Latin (Roman) name.
