Oenomaus

A Gallic gladiator and leader in the Third Servile War


In 73 BCE, Crixus helped to lead a revolt at the gladiatorial training school in Capua alongside Spartacus and Crixus. About 70 gladiators escaped. This original force gradually gained suppport from other escaped slaves as well as the poor. He seems to have died early on during the war.
