The secutores are fighting PUBLIC BUILDINGS AND RECREATIONS OF POMPEI 163 with the retiarii, and one secutor, covered with wounds from the trident of the retiarius, receives the death -stroke courageously from his comrade's hand. The victor, Nitimus, seems to be pushing him on to the sword, to make an end of him. In the background, a second retiarius waits in the distance for another victim, while in the foreground two gladiators appear to be running away. The other figures in the bas-relief re...present similar matches, in one of which a mirmillo falls heavily after re- Gladiator's Helmet ceiving his death wound.
Seneca speaks with indignation of these dis- plays. " What a shame to take a man's life, which is a sacred thing, for sport, and butcher him for the amusement of his fellow-men ! " But this did not prevent the The End of the Match (a Painting on the Podium of the Amphitheatre) P"ladiatOrS from being" popular heroes. Pictures of them are found in the most diverse places : on the walls of private houses, in the chambers of courtesans, and in the thermo- polia.
