When the ancient Romans weren't working hard creating one of the most powerful civilizations of the world, they were certainly playing hard. Many of their sports and games demonstrated a certain interest in violence as entertainment, such as gladiatorial matches, dramatic chariot races, and awe-inspiring naval battles. This volume investigates the recreational interests of the ancient Romans through valuable primary source material, fascinating topic panels, and rich illustrations and images.
