Quote - There actually were some female gladiators, so its not all that far-fetched. I doubt they dressed quite like that tho, lol. They would have needed to pass as male.

They came to this conclusion from 2 statues and writings from one Emporer saying they fought at night under torch light in his chambers. Ironically, another Emporer later made female gladiators illegal, suggesting that it may have happened with concubines or slaves... Slight difference between concubines/slaves and gladiators, but you never know.

Seneca eluded to female Gladiators, but never actually stated it as fact. It has been argued that he was refering to fencers, which woman were allowed to do.

The only evidence of female gladiators is a pelvic bone found in a grave in England that was buried with the same things found in other Gladitors graves....  "Great Dover Street Woman", if you want to look it up. This is the main piece of evidence quoted to say that Female Gladitors exsisted. One Pelvic bone.....

No one really knows for sure, baseing a fact on writings of a mad man, a pelvic bone, and a few statues is stetching it...

Wish I knew where the sets came from, but I am drawing a blank...
