Gladiatorial fights wee advertised the same as anything else in the ancient world, by writing on walls. The old advertisements would be whitewashed over and the new announcements painted over them. There are numerous pieces of advertising from Pompeii advertising rentals, election preferences and gladiatorial bouts. The gladiatorial ads would say how many pairs of fighters would be performing, the name of a famous gladiator if he were among the contestants and if there would be an animal hunt or an awning for shade.
