What did gladiators do when they wanted to admit defeat?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: The fights between gladiators in ancient Rome were brutal. It was not like a football game (American or otherwise) where it would be assumed that both sides would go home with just a couple of bruises. Death was a fairly common occurrence at a gladiatorial game, but that doesn't mean it was inevitable. One gladiator might be lying prone in the blood-absorbing sand of the arena, with the other gladiator holding a sword (or whichever weapon he was assigned) at his throat. Instead of simply plunging in the weapon and consigning his opponent to death, the winning gladiator would look for a signal to tell him what to do.     The winning gladiator would get his signal—not from the crowd as illustrated in the famous 19th century painting by Jean-Léon Gérôme (1824–1904)—but rather from the referee of the game, the editor (or editor muneris), who might also be a senator, emperor or another politico. He was the one to make the final decisions about the fates of the gladiators in the arena. However, since the games were meant to curry public favor, the editor had to pay attention to the wishes of the audience. Much of the audience attended such brutal events for the single purpose of witnessing the bravery of a gladiator in the face of death.By the way, gladiators never said "Morituri te salutant" ("Those who are about to die salute you"). That was said once to Emperor Claudius (10 BC–54 CE) on the occasion of a staged naval battle, not gladiatorial combat.

Ways to End a Fight Between Gladiators

Gladiatorial contests were dangerous and potentially fatal, but not as often fatal as Hollywood would have us believe: Gladiators were rented from their training school (ludus) and a good gladiator was expensive to replace, so most battles did not end in death. There were only two ways that a gladiatorial battle could be ended—either one gladiator won or it was a draw—but it was the editor who had the final say on whether the loser died on the field or went on to fight another day.

The editor had three established ways to make his decision.

He might have established rules (lex) in advance of the game. If the fight's sponsors wanted a fight to the death, they had to be willing to compensate the lanista (trainer) who had rented out the dead gladiator.

He could accept the surrender of one of the gladiators. After having lost or cast aside his weapons, the losing gladiator would fall to his knees and raise his index finger (ad digitatum).  

He could listen to the audience. When a gladiator went down, cries of Habet, Hoc habet! (He's had it!), and shouts of Mitte! (Let him go!) or Lugula! (Kill him!) could be heard.

A game that ended in death was known as a sine remissione (without dismissal).

how has our society been developing? write in 6 points​

Answers

Answer:

Social development is concerned with enhancing every person's well-being in society so that they can achieve their full potential. The progress of society is connected with every citizen's well-being. Social growth requires citizens investment. It calls for barriers to be eliminated to allow all people to step with trust and integrity towards their dreams. It's a matter of refusing to agree that people living in poverty are necessarily wrong. It's about assisting people to advance towards self-sufficiency

Explanation:

Development is attributed to the capacity of society to mobilise resources to resolve problems and challenges. In the course of its growth, society is going through well-defined phases. It is nomadic hunting, farming, urban, commercial , industrial and post-industrial communities in rural areas.

The theory of social development tries to understand systemic changes that help society accomplish better its goals and objectives in the structural and structure of society. Development can be characterised as the upward movement of higher energy, production, quality , productivity, sophistication, understanding and creativity, mastery, pleasure and accomplishment in a manner that is relevant to all society at all historical times. Development is not simply a collection of policies and initiatives with such particular outcomes, but a process of social change. This process has increased in pace and intensity over the last five centuries and has undergone a marked surge in acceleration  in the last five decades.

Increasing awareness and better organisation is the basic mechanism driving social changes. When society perceives new and improved opportunities for change , new organisational forms are developed to effectively leverage these new initiatives. The new organisational models are better able to use collective powers, expertise and resources to make the most of the opportunities available to achieve the expected results. Many factors affect development development. Development is driven by several factors.

There must be a motivation for social change and necessary prerequisites for this transition. The driving force must be sufficiently strong to overcome barriers to this change. Resources such as money, technology and infrastructure support are also important for growth. Development is a product of the willingness of society to organise resources to overcome problems and opportunities. In the course of its growth, society is going through well-defined phases. They are nomadic hunting, farming, urban, commercial , industrial and post-industrial groups in rural areas. Pioneers develop new views, behaviours and activities to combat conservative elements

Innovation is then adopted, imitated, coordinated and used by other group members. Innovation-enhanced organizational changes can be made at four levels – physical , social, emotional and psychological. In addition, the promotion of growth requires four different types of capital. The most noticeable, but less expandable physical resources are among those four. Resource efficiency increases exponentially as organisational output and the amount of information input increases. The speed and scale of growth depends on the stage in which society is situated.
