He was captured and subsequently sold as a slave. The revolt did not come out of nowhere; it was the result of widespread social turmoil in the Republic during that time. [39] Regardless of what actually occurred, Crassus' treatment of his legions proved that "he was more dangerous to them than the enemy", and spurred them on to victory rather than running the risk of displeasing their commander. Despite the contradictions in the classical sources regarding the events of 72 BC, there seems to be general agreement that Spartacus and his followers were in the south of Italy in early 71 BC. [39] Minor sources mention that there were some attempts at raft and shipbuilding by the rebels as a means to escape, but that Crassus took unspecified measures to ensure the rebels could not cross to Sicily, and their efforts were abandoned. The Third was the only one directly to threaten the Roman heartland of Italia. Both Crassus and Pompey returned to Rome with their legions and refused to disband them, instead encamping outside Rome. Although this is not contradicted by classical historians, no historical account mentions that the goal of the rebel slaves was to end slavery in the Republic, nor do any of the actions of rebel leaders, who themselves committed numerous atrocities, seem specifically aimed at ending slavery. An example of a modern heroic depiction of Spartacus. Crucifixion - Third Servile War is a IPA - Imperial style beer brewed by Nightmare Brewing Company in Farmingdale, NY. After his victory over Crixus, Gellius moved northwards, following the main group of slaves under Spartacus who were heading for Cisalpine Gaul. The revolt however, which started in 73 BC, was not taken seriously by the senate in Rome until several militias of ever-increasing size, were sent against the rebel army and routed. The Third Servile War, also named the War of Spartacus, was slave insurrections against the Roman Republic. The Roman Senate's growing alarm about the continued military successes of this band, and about their depredations against Roman towns and the countryside, eventually led to Rome's fielding of an army of eight legions under the harsh but effective leadership of Marcus Licinius Crassus. These forces were also defeated by the army of escaped slaves: Cossinius was killed, Varinius was nearly captured, and the equipment of the armies was seized by the slaves. [20], With these successes, more and more slaves flocked to the Spartacan forces, as did "many of the herdsmen and shepherds of the region", swelling their ranks to some 70,000. There, a Roman army of some 10,000 soldiers, led by the governor of Cisalpine Gaul, Gaius Cassius Longinus attempted to bar Spartacus' progress and were also defeated.[34]. Note the legions of Pompey moving in from the north to capture survivors. Plutarch writes that Spartacus merely wished to escape northwards into Cisalpine Gaul and disperse his men back to their homes.[25]. [29], The defeated consular armies fell back to Rome to regroup while Spartacus' followers moved northward. [17] Both men stood for the consulship of 70 BC, even though Pompey was ineligible because of his youth and lack of service as praetor or quaestor. Many popular modern accounts of the war claim that there was a factional split i… Shows the initial skirmishes between elements of the two sides, the turn-about of the Spartacan forces for the final confrontation. With the slaves thus contained, Glaber was content to wait until starvation forced the slaves to surrender. The third slave revolt, and the one to occur on the Italian mainland during the republican period, was led by an escaped Gladiator named Spartacus.

Their actions as Consuls greatly furthered the subversion of Roman political institutions and contributed to the eventual transition of the Roman Republic into the Roman Empire. These punishments would have been brought swiftly once his escape plan was discovered. The Third Servile War was significant to the broader history of ancient Rome in its effect on the careers of Pompey and Crassus. What they intended to do with this force is somewhat difficult for modern readers to determine. While these were considered serious civil disturbances by the Roman Senate, taking years and direct military intervention to quell, they were never considered a serious threat to the Republic. The Third Servile War was the only one to directly threaten the Roman heartland of Italia and was doubly alarming to the Roman people due to the repeated successes of the rapidly … [49] The rebel slaves were not a professional army, and had reached their limit. Certainly other slave leaders are mentionedâCrixus, Oenomaus, Gannicus, and Castusâand we cannot tell from the historical evidence whether they were aides, subordinates, or even equals leading groups of their own and traveling in convoy with Spartacus' people. While the slaves lacked military training, Spartacus' forces displayed ingenuity in their use of available local materials, and in their use of clever, unorthodox tactics when facing the disciplined Roman armies. [24] Plutarch describes the desire of some of the escaped slaves to plunder Italy, rather than escape over the Alps. [52], The rebellion of the Third Servile War had been annihilated by Crassus. Spartacus, 19th-century illustration. Though there were other slave revolts in the future.

The able-bodied adults of this band were a surprisingly effective armed force that repeatedly showed they could withstand the Roman military, from the local Campanian patrols, to the Roman militia, and to trained Roman legions under consular command. By the end of 73 BC, Spartacus and Crixus were in command of a large group of armed men with a proven ability to withstand Roman armies. [40], The tide seemed to have turned in the war.

[5] With Rome's heavy involvement in wars of conquest in the 2nd and 1st centuries BC, tens if not hundreds of thousands of slaves at a time were imported into the Roman economy from various European and Mediterranean acquisitions. story of romance set in turn-of-the-century Paris and several provincial towns. In an audacious move, Spartacus’s forces clambered down the precipices and put the Romans to flight. In short order, he erected an impressive ditch and rampart fortification system that stretched some 40 miles (60 km) across the neck of the peninsula, Denied both the ability to maneuver his army and ready access to fresh supplies, Spartacus saw that his situation was desperate. [39] Despite this initial loss, Crassus engaged Spartacus and defeated him, killing some 6,000 of the rebels. Why they might do so, when there was apparently no reason for them not to escape over the AlpsâSpartacus' goal according to Plutarch[35]âis not explained. Spartacus' army met Lentulus' legion, defeated it, turned, and destroyed Gellius' army, forcing the Roman legions to retreat in disarray. The largest Servile War started (after First and Second uprising of slaves) simultaneously with a bitter class struggle, during the time of Quintus Sertorius and during the war between Romans and Mithridates.. At the gladiator school Lentulus Batiatus in Capua, in 74 BC a conspiracy of slaves was made with the participation of about 200 people. Add To Cart. [62] While these legal changes occurred much too late to be direct results of the Third Servile War, they represent the legal codification of changes in the Roman attitude toward slaves that evolved over decades. Destined for the arena, in 73 bce he, with a band of his fellow gladiators, broke out of a training school at Capua and took refuge on Mt. The Third Servile War was the last of the Servile Wars, and Rome did not see another slave uprising of this magnitude again. By affording Pompey the opportunity to return to Italy with an army at his back, all the glory for defeating Spartacus would almost certainly accrue to him and not to Crassus. Groups of hardy and desperate men now joined the rebels, and when the praetor Publius Varinius took the field against them he found them entrenched like a regular army on the plain. At this time, the legions of Pompey were returning to Italy, having put down the rebellion of Quintus Sertorius in Hispania. Under Republican law, a slave was not considered a person, but property. Certainly the revolt had shaken the Roman people, who "out of sheer fear seem to have begun to treat their slaves less harshly than before. [11], Once free, the escaped gladiators chose leaders from their number, selecting two Gallic slavesâCrixus and Oenomausâand Spartacus, who was said either to be a Thracian auxiliary from the Roman legions later condemned to slavery, or a captive taken by the legions. [29], Appian claims that at this point Spartacus changed his intention of marching on Romeâimplying this was Spartacus' goal following the confrontation in Picenum[31]âas "he did not consider himself ready as yet for that kind of a fight, as his whole force was not suitably armed, for no city had joined him, but only slaves, deserters, and riff-raff", and decided to withdraw into southern Italy once again. Between 73 and 71 BC, a band of escaped slavesâoriginally a small cadre of about 78[1] primarily Thracian, Gallic and Germanic[2] escaped gladiators which grew into a band of over 120,000[3] men, women and childrenâwandered throughout and raided Italy with relative impunity under the guidance of several leaders, including the famous gladiator-general Spartacus. [33] However, as Plutarch describes Crassus forcing Spartacus' followers to retreat southwards from Picenum, one might infer that the rebel slaves approached Picenum from the south in early 71 BC, implying that they withdrew from Mutina into southern or central Italy for the winter of 72â71 BC. In the pitched battle which followed, the rebel army was annihilated and Spartacus was killed in combat. The Third Servile War, also known as the Gladiator War, was a major slave rebellion against the Roman Republic which occurred from 73 to 71 BC.

According to Plutarch, Spartacus, with the main body of his army, defeated the consul Lentulus and then pressed towards the Alps. Freedom was within sight, and Plutarch characterized Spartacus as holding realistic views about his army’s chances of defeating a fully mobilized Rome. He is also said to have treated his prisoners with humanity. The end of the Servile Wars seems to have coincided with the end of the period of the most prominent use of slaves in Rome and the beginning of a new perception of slaves within Roman society and law. [54], While most of the rebel slaves were killed on the battlefield, some 6,000 survivors were captured by the legions of Crassus. Spartacus and The Third Servile War.

However, he was betrayed by the pirates, who took payment and then abandoned the rebel slaves. [12] There is some question as to Spartacus's nationality, however, as a Thraex (plural Thraces or Threses) was a type of gladiator in Rome, so the title "Thracian" may simply refer to the style of gladiatorial combat in which he was trained.

[55], Pompey and Crassus reaped political benefit for having put down the rebellion. The war ended in 71 BC when the armies of Spartacus, after long and bitter fighting, retreating before the legions of Crassus, and realizing that the legions of Gnaeus Pompeius Magnus and Marcus Terentius Varro Lucullus were moving in to entrap them, launched their full strength against Crassus' legions and were utterly destroyed.

[13], These escaped slaves were able to defeat a small force of troops sent after them from Capua, and equip themselves with captured military equipment as well as their gladiatorial weapons. This indicates the existence of two groups: Lucius Gellius Publicola eventually attacked Crixus and a group of some 30,000 followers who are described as being separate from the main group under Spartacus. Although Pompey's forces did not directly engage Spartacus' forces at any time, his legions moving in from the north were able to capture some 5,000 rebels fleeing the battle, "all of whom he slew". Meaning of third servile war. [38], When the forces of Spartacus moved northwards once again, Crassus deployed six of his legions on the borders of the region (Plutarch claims the initial battle between Crassus' legions and Spartacus' followers occurred near the Picenum region,[33] Appian claims it occurred near the Samnium region[40]), and detached two legions under his legate, Mummius, to maneuver behind Spartacus, but gave them orders not to engage the rebels. [33] Plutarch does not mention Spartacus engaging Gellius' legion at all, nor of Spartacus facing the combined consular legions in Picenum. Although this is not contradicted by classical historians, no historical account mentions that the goal of the rebel slaves was to end slavery in the Republic, nor do any of the actions of rebel leaders, who themselves committed numerous atrocities, seem specifically aimed at ending slavery.

Plutarch makes no further mention of events until the initial confrontation between Marcus Licinius Crassus and Spartacus in the spring of 71 BC, omitting the march on Rome and the retreat to Thurii described by Appian. [6] While there was limited use for slaves as servants, craftsmen, and personal attendants, vast numbers of slaves worked in mines and on the agricultural lands of Sicily and southern Italy. It is difficult to determine the extent to which the events of this war contributed to changes in the use and legal rights of Roman slaves.

In 135 BC and 104 BC, the First and Second Servile Wars, respectively, erupted in Sicily, where small bands of rebels found tens of thousands of willing followers wishing to escape the oppressive life of a Roman slave. [53] After this action, Pompey sent a dispatch to the Senate, saying that while Crassus certainly had conquered the slaves in open battle, he himself had ended the war, thus claiming a large portion of the credit and earning the enmity of Crassus.

[29], Appian claims that Spartacus executed some 300 captured Roman soldiers to avenge the death of Crixus, forcing them to fight each other to the death as gladiators. His men, their confidence bolstered by this small victory, refused to retreat farther. The two generals used their success in putting down the rebellion to further their political careers, using their public acclaim and the implied threat of their legions to sway the consular elections of 70 BC in their favor. Appian is uncertain whether he decimated the two consular legions for cowardice when he was appointed their commander, or whether he had his entire army decimated for a later defeat (an event in which up to 4,000 legionaries would have been executed). If Spartacus did intend to march on Rome, it was a goal he must have later abandoned. Overview of Spartacus's life, including a discussion of the Gladiatorial War.

The effects of the Third Servile War on Roman attitudes towards slavery, and on the institution of slavery in Rome, are harder to determine. While this is the unspoken assumption of the Roman historians, this may be the Romans projecting their own hierarchical view of military power and responsibility on the ad hoc organization of the slaves.

While Spartacus was attempting to carry his rebellion to Sicily, Crassus endeavoured to end the war by effectively besieging the entire “toe” of Italy. Fictional accountsâsuch as Stanley Kubrick's 1960 film Spartacusâsometimes portray the rebelling slaves as ancient Roman freedom fighters, struggling to change a corrupt Roman society and to end the Roman institution of slavery. During the time of Emperor Claudius (reigned 41â54 AD), a constitution was enacted that made the killing of an old or infirm slave an act of murder, and decreed that if such slaves were abandoned by their owners, they became freedmen.
