On July 2, 2010, in Credenhill, Herefordshire, England, archeologists uncovered other remains which might be from a female gladiator. Nicholas Sekunda, in Osprey's book The Ancient Greeks, wonders if Greek warriors actually fought naked in the early 4th century BC and postulates that the Boeotians might have done so, as they "almost worshipped the body, spending most of their lives in the gymnasia"; one of the book's illustrations shows them naked. Unfortunately, those sex scenes included Pasiphae and the bull, as well as a scene from The Golden Ass by Apuleius.

Sometimes criminals were handed wooden swords and were sent into the arena to fight off a wild animal who had been deliberately angered by the arena slaves. Meanwhile male viewers got a treat as the girls all wore revealing gold bikinis before wrestling in the sand as they grabbed buried sacks out of the ground.After the criminal had been flung about and gored by the animal’s horns, he or she (women were not excluded from this form of execution) was then taken out of the netting.

She was buried as an outcast outside the main cemetery with several items related to the world of gladiators. As their clothes burned, the victims were forced to dance for the Roman public as the pain of fire burned away their flesh.Because so many of these men were imprisoned by their masters, their ability to engage in sexual relations with women was limited (at best). Rome was the very essence of a male dominated society, being militaristic, proud, go-getting and determined on expansion. It is worth noting that it wasn’t until 390 AD that homosexuality became outlawed, thanks to Christian emperors. The wild cat or cats were set free to chase after the victim until he was caught and sufficiently mauled and battered.

The movie 300 has the Spartan soldiers fighting nearly naked without any form of body armor protecting them. However, it was also said that the senators disgraced themselves for watching the gladiatrix in the amphitheater. It's quite possible that in later periods, women who were slaves fought in arenas, but the first Gladiatrix were free women who were looking for adventure.

Identifying as gender-queer, MJ focuses on topics that touch on a variety of life issues impacting men, women and non-binary individuals. When it came to the arena and the exhibition of death, bringing about the end of a criminal or slave had to excite the crowd, and crucifixion could deliver the wow of mortal suffering to the viewers. The convict, as would any sensible person, choose to stick his hand in the flame in the hopes of delaying his eventual death.

It would be erroneous to blame all of the brutal executions that took place in the Colosseum on the ancient Romans. Plutarch mentions that at the age of twelve their undergarment would be taken away and only one upper garment given them each year. author Frank Miller commented on this alteration in an Entertainment Weekly interview, "I took those chest plates and leather skirts off of them for a reason. One of the most important pieces of archeological evidence on the topic is a slab of marble from Halicarnassus (Bodrum, Turkey).

According to Tacitus (56-117AD), they were hardly ever viewed by noble men, but at the same time, their fights were extremely popular. I have read accounts that the Spartans would occasionally cast aside their clothing and fight naked if they wanted to show total scorn to an enemy that they did not fear.
