EzraVery few names of gladiators have come down to us. About the most famous was the gladiator Spiculus, who was the friend of Nero. Some others are Martianus, who had an affair with the wife of Marcus Aurelius, and a gladiator shown in a mosaic called Montanus. From Pompeii, we get an inscription naming the Thracian gladiator Celadus as "the girl's delight". There is also an animal fighter named Julius Alexander. These may or may not be their real names as gladiators and chariot drivers sometimes used "stage names".

History does not record who the first gladiators were. All that is known, is that the custom began in the Italian area of Campania, as a celebration of a war victory over the Samnite. The first gladiators didn't appear in Rome until 246 BC and they were three pairs of slaves, again, their names not recorded.
