According to the 1960 movie, Spartacus, he was crucified by Crassus. Spartacus had been captured in a battle and first had to fight Antoninus to the death, the winner to be crucified. Spartacus didn't want Antoninus to suffer on a cross, so he killed him in the fight.

The main thing that Spatacus did was that he was the 1st slave to lead a revolt against the Roman Empire. In the battle the Romans won and Spatacus and all the people captured alive were crucified. This was the normal punishment in those days for anyone who challenged the power of Rome.

The death of Spartacus is just as hazy as his background. Some sources say he was killed in battle, others say he was captured and crucified along the Appain Way and still others say he was never captured.

When was spartacus born?

In 109 B.C. When was Spartacus Born? Good question - difficult answer! The Romans documented the slave rebellion led by the Roman slave but naturally the authors of the day wrote about their own commanders and their victories, so factual information about Spartacus is somewhat limited. So back to the question "When was Spartacus Born?". The most popular date given by historians for the year he was born is 109BC.
