How did Caligula die?

Then his eccentricities became more murderous. He restored the hated treason trials of his predecessor, executing both rivals and close allies, including the head of the Praetorian Guard, his personal protection squad.At other times, his cruelty was more random. In one instance, he was about to sacrifice an animal as a sacred offering to the gods. He raised his mallet to kill the animal and brought it down hard. At the last moment, however, he turned and struck a priest standing nearby, who died instantly.

Did emperors ever fight in gladiator games?

No, but they always watched them. Gladiator games were for the lowest of people, usually slaves or foreigners. Having said that, remember the emperor Commodus. He was notorious for fighting in gladiatorial combats. He not only won all the (ahem) "contests " with his opponents, but he also participated in animal hunts.


Which roman emperor insisted that he was a god and committed many murders and other crimes?

Commodus was the worst Roman emperor. He was an unjust, cruel and egotistical ruler. He fancied himself as a gladiator and fought in the arena. He always won because the gladiators let him and he spared their lives. However, he killed his sparring partners in practice when he won. He bound people who had lost their feet and then clubbed them to death. He also killed with a sword injured soldiers and amputees. He fought against animals in the arena. He decapitated an ostrich and carried its head to the section where senators sat and signalled to them they were going to be the next ones. He killed a giraffe, even though this animal was considered harmless and not worthy to fight against. He was megalomaniac. He called himself the new Romulus, renamed Rome Colonia Lucia Annia Commodiana, changed the names of the months with names he gave to himself, renamed the legions Commodianae and the senate Commodian Fortunate Senate
