thumb|350px|Part of the Zliten mosaic from [[Libya (Leptis Magna), about 2nd century AD. It shows (left to right) a thraex fighting a murmillo, a hoplomachus standing with another murmillo (who is signaling his defeat to the referee), and one of a matched pair.]]
A gladiator was a fighter who engaged in armed combat in ancient Roman arenas for public entertainment, typically as part of organized spectacles. The different types of gladiators, distinguished by their weapons and fighting styles—such as the thraex, murmillo, and hoplomachus shown in this 2nd-century mosaic—were central to Roman popular culture and remain significant historical evidence of Roman society and values.
