National Geographic: Gladiator School Discovery Reveals Hard Lives of Ancient Warriors
NG Daily News: Archaeologists have mapped an ancient gladiator school, where the famed warriors lived, trained, and fought. Discovered at the site of Carnuntum outside Vienna, Austria, the gladiatorial school, or ludus gladiatorius, is the first one discovered outside the city of Rome. Now hidden beneath a pasture, the gladiator school was entirely mapped with noninvasive earth-sensing technologies. The discovery, reported Tuesday evening by the journal Antiquity, makes clear what sort of lives these famous ancient warriors led during the second century A.D. in the Roman Empire.
