This superb chess set exactly captures the period in history between 73 BC and 71 BC when the oppressed slaves, led by Spartacus, rose in revolt against their Roman masters. Spartacus was a gladiator of Thracian descent and had probably been captured by the Romans whilst defending his country.
Shown here on chess board reference H401 (Board not included), this chess set gives you the opportunity to fight again the battles of the slaves against their Roman masters. This time, the outcome may be different. Who knows? Are you brave enough to take on the challenge of Spartacus, the gladiator?
