It is a strange argument for me too. Too much questions to be solved:<br>
<br>
1) The slave merchants were in a good relationship with both the contendants? What kept the Gaul (or germans or another people) from killing them and take their belongings?<br>
<br>
2) What kept the slaves from escaping and go home? There were thousends of prisoners per time. No guards with rifles, no ID and no barb-wire. How they did?<br>
<br>
3) Third: Vercingetorige remains 6 years in the terrible mamertinus carcer, a hellish jail, then after the triunph Caesar kills him. Cleopatra kills herself too avoid the triumph. Someone i don't remember wrote romans wanted her parading nude and in iron chains. Zenobia, instead, is paraded in golden chains with a marvellous dress. And freed after a little time. The roman fair-play is something i don't understand. There was some kind of rule about triumphs?<br>
