Spartacus was an escaped slave/gladiator who led a slave revolt against the Romans. He was eventually defeated by Crassus and crucified. That's all we really know about him. Historians think he was a Thracian, but that may be because he fought in the arena as a "Thracian" style gladiator. We also don't know if "Spartacus" was his actual name. To many it sounds like a professional name coming from Sparta or the Spartans who were known as fearless fighters.
It was termed the Runaway Scrape.
Spartacus was a slave gladiator who escaped with a few followers, gained more followers until he had a sizeable army of escaped slaves and then terrorized the Italian peninsula.
