$The Story of Spartacus (73 - 71 BC) // As told by Appian // Roman Source A Roman account of a legendary rebellion. Differing accounts relay us his origins; supposedly born in Thrace (modern day Bulgaria) to a tribe called the Maedi, legendary Gladiator-cum-general Sparcatus was captured and enslaved some time before 73 BC. A heavyweight gladiator; he, along with around seventy other slaves threw off their chains and raised an army - roaming across Italy for three long years and entering into Roman legend. This is the Greco-Roman historian Appians version of that story. How do we actually know about history?
