The archetype of the gladiator has persisted for more than two thousand years, to the present day...

He arranged a meeting with Shapur, to negotiate terms of a truce, but his rival violated the spirit of the meeting by taking him captive. He remained in the hands of the Persians from 260 until his death five years later. Va...
