By the time of the emperors, the emperor was the only one who could afford to pay for a gladiatorial contest. So he had the role of paymaster. If he attended the bouts, he was usually awarded the position of editor, which was the top official of the games. The editor was the one who gave the "start" signal, determined a win, loss or pass, and warded the prizes.

∙ 14y agoThe emperor gets to decide the final decision if the person the gladiator is going to kill is allowed to die or not. He does this by using his thumb. A thumbs up means that the person may live, and if it's a thumbs down, the person has to die.
