What did gladiators in ancient times really eat?
Roman gladiators were much more than mere fighters in the arena. They were considered celebrated sports stars of their time and had to prepare their bodies optimally for training and competitions. A balanced and nutrient-rich diet played a crucial role in this.
In this book, author Christian Eckert takes readers on a fascinating journey into the daily lives of ancient gladiators. Drawing on an experiment conducted in collaboration with the University of Regensburg on the lives and diets of Roman gladiators, he demonstrates just how surprisingly modern their diet actually was—and why, in many respects, it is on par with today’s nutritional guidelines for athletes.
In addition to fascinating insights into history and archaeology, the book contains numerous delicious recipes that make it easy to try out the cuisine of ancient gladiators for yourself. A successful blend of historical knowledge and culinary inspiration—ideal for history buffs, home cooks, and anyone who wants to gain a new perspective on the world of gladiators.
