Nobody really knows for sure but Plutarch sites him as nomadic Thraciansmercenary. He was possibly employed as an Auxiliary of the Roman army or in other accounts he was taken captive by the Roman legions then sold as a slave (This account would be more logical and in keeping). It is also said that his wife was captured with him and if true, this leads us to consider that the Romans probably raided Spartacus's camp or home village.
No account explains as to why he was sold into slavery, but we know that he eventually ended up as a Gladiator in the Ludus (Gladiator School) of Lentulus Batiatus. It was from here that he was noted for being a major protagonist in the riot and eventual uprising of the slaves along with two Gauls named 'Crixus' and 'Oenemous'.
