摘要
Though a dangerous and potentially fatal contest, gladiatorial combat during the Empire was nevertheless bound by recognizable rules and expectations. The contests were fought by expensive professionals and supervised by referees. But more than this, these combats may also have been governed by an unwritten "code of conduct" enforced by the gladiators themselves: to fight bravely in hope of victory, but not to wound or kill needlessly.
