What does Ave Cesare Mortituri te Salutant mean and how was it used?

When did the saying of for thoughs about to die we salute you?

The saying "ave Caesar morituri te salutant" (usually translated as: Hail, Caesar, those about to die salute you") was supposedly the traditional salute to the Roman emperor by gladiators in the arena. It was first recorded by the Roman historian Suetonius (c71-130a.d.) in his "Lives of the Twelve Caesars" probably written around 120 a.d.

What was it used for the colosseum?

The emperor organized fights to entertain the people. For example, there were fights with gladiators, animals, criminals. They 'played' known battles, like the Punic Wars with Hannibal. When they did something like that, they used criminals or unimportant gladiators as the ones who were going to lose (=die); they took animals from all over the world: elephants, tigers, lions,... When the gladiators walked inside the arena they first went to the emperor and said the famous sentence: "Morituri te salutant" = Those who are going to die salute you. 'Best part of all' is that when a gladiator won, he still wasn't sure he could live further. If he made a good show, the emperor was more likely to let him live. However if the people who watched didn't like it the emperor tended to listen to them to make him seem more generous and become popular. The Colosseum was also capable of being set under water so they could do seabattles..


How would a roman gladiator say hello?

Aincient Romans would greet each other by hopping on the right foot, flapping the left arm (as a chicken would), and blinking a different eye every two seconds. Okay, joke time over. In reality the Romans would greet each other by the word "salve" if speaking to one person or "salvete" if greeting more than one. The word "ave" could also be used or, if addressing a single person, the person's name could be used.

What did gladiators do before fighting?

According to Wikipedia: The now famous gladiatorial salute "Ave Caesar, morituri te salutant" or "Hail Caesar, they who are about to die salute you" is another product of movies. This salute was only mentioned by Suetonius (Lives of the Twelve Caesars, Claudius, XXI, 12­14) as happening once, spoken by condemned men (damnati) to Claudius at a naumachia (a staged naval battle) and they used the word "imperator" (Emperor) not Caesar.
