The origin of gladiatorial combat is open to debate. There is evidence of it in funeral rites during the Punic Wars of the 3rd century BC, and thereafter it rapidly became an essential feature of politics and social life in the Roman world.

The gladiator games lasted for nearly a thousand years, reaching their peak between the 1st century BC and the 2nd century AD.

Blood Like Lemonade - Morcheeba

www.youtube.com/watch?v=VyRxTTegjXM

Healing holy man,

once upon a time

He lived for his wife

up until the crime

Hunting high and low

to seek revenge

Brand new moral code,

got made reluctant renegade

Leaving empty souls

when he avenged

Evil spirits flowed,

he drank the blood like lemonade

Cozy campfire crowd

with a case of wine

I'm feeling fine

Bounty hunter now

and it crossed the line

Cross that line

Hunting high and low

to seek revenge

Brand new moral code,

got made reluctant renegade

Leaving empty souls

when he avenged

Evil spirits flowed,

he drank the blood like lemonade
