According to the 1960 movie, Spartacus, he was crucified by Crassus. Spartacus had been captured in a battle and first had to fight Antoninus to the death, the winner to be crucified. Spartacus didn't want Antoninus to suffer on a cross, so he killed him in the fight. The main thing that Spatacus did was that he was the 1st slave to lead a revolt against the Roman Empire. In the battle the Romans won and Spatacus and all the people captured alive were crucified. This was the normal punishment in those days for anyone who challenged the power of Rome.

How did they treat mustard gas?
no one can/could treat mustard gas.i got this informatin from Spatacus Educational "The skin of victims of mustard gas blistered, the eyes became very sore and they began to vomit. Mustard gas caused internal and external bleeding and attacked the bronchial tubes, stripping off the mucous membrane. This was extremely painful and most soldiers had to be strapped to their beds. It usually took a person four or five weeks to die of mustard gas poisoning. One nurse, Vera Brittain, wrote: "I wish those people who talk about going on with this war whatever it costs could see the soldiers suffering from mustard gas poisoning. Great mustard-coloured blisters, blind eyes, all sticky and stuck together, always fighting for breath, with voices a mere whisper, saying that their throats are closing and they know they will choke."
Who was sparticus and why was he important?
Spartacus was from Thrace, Greece, an area in the northeastern part of the country. He was captured by the Romans and sold into slavery. He seemed to have good fighting skills and would find himself at a gladiator training school in the Roman city of Capua. In 73 BC BCE Partacus escaped from Capua along with 70 other slaves. These 70 men were all trained gladiators and fled in the direction of the volcano Mt. Vesuvius. Among Spatacus' comrades were Gauls, Cimbri, Teutons and Thracians. The Romans sent out a small force to gather in the slaves as this rebellion was not taken as a serious threat. The Romans were defeated and Spartacus captured weapons and horses. Many slaves heard about Spartacus and his small group of men and also escaped their bondage to join him. Soon there thousands of escaped slaves all willing to fight for their freedom. Each time, Rome underestimated the size of this slave army and the slaves defeated each Roman military unit sent to capture them. Again Spartacus was able to capture more horses and weapons. As their success became better known, more and more slaves joined Spartacus. Finally the Roman Senate decided to end this rebellion as soon as possible. They appointed Marcus Licinius Crassus to command a group of legions to supress the rebels. Crassus was one of the richest men in Rome and had good military experience, having served with distinction under the former dictator Sulla. Spartacus and his army, now numbering about 100,000 men headed south trying to escape to Sicily. That effort failed so Spartacus headed for the port of Brindisi, at the "heel" of the Italian peninsula. His idea was to find a way to cross the Adriatic Sea and escape. As it happened, he ran into bad luck as a Roman army, under Pompey was returning from Greece, so Spartacus was forced to move north. It was now 71 BC BCE and the slave army had existed almost 2 years now. Crassus now had Spartacus trapped. In 71 BC BCE a final battle of the slaves came to an end. Spartacus was thought to have fallen in battle. His remains were never identified. Rome wanted to make an example of slave revolts, so about 6,000 of the captive slaves were crucified along the Appian Way from Rome to Capua, where the rebellion began. Spartacus was an unlikely and most likely a slave history would never have known about. He was important as he showed great organizational skills and had a degree of success against Rome.
