The practice of gladiatorial fights spread quickly in Roman culture. Its origin can be traced back to the minus, i.e., the practice of rich and famous personalities sponsoring public performances during religious holidays, festivals, and events. The Emperor Vespasianus built the largest amphitheater in the world for gladiatorial games: the Flavian Amphitheatre, better known as the Coliseum. The fights often took place between couples of different gladiator types, such as the myrmillons, the thracians, the secutores, and the retiarii, each characterized by their own equipment and fighting style.
