Spartacus was the most popular leader of a major slave uprising against the Roman Empire. He was said to be a Thracian by birth, who had once served as a soldier with the Romans. He became a prisoner and was eventually sold for a gladiator. Spartacus was trained at a gladiator school and was among a group which escaped. They recruited other slaves and Spartacus was made leader.
The group of Spartacus engaged the Romans in several battles. Initially, Spartacus had the upper hand and won most of them. It was when Crassus was placed in charge with 8 legions of Roman soldiers that Spartacus started suffering setbacks. The numerical advantage and superior military equipment of the Roman soldiers eventually took their toll on Spartacus and his followers. In the end, they were defeated and Spartacus was said to have been killed in battle.
