Spartacus was a Thracian Gladiator of Normadic stock, who (along with several other "generals") in the year 73BC, led a slave uprising that started at the school of Gladiatoral arts situated in ancient Capua, Rome. The rebellion started off with a relatively small number of escaped slaves numbering around 70, but grew to consist of over 100,000 slaves who had escaped their Roman masters to join Spartacus in rebellion. He was later put down in 71BC by Marcus Crassus and Gnaeus Pompeus Magnus (also known as Pompey - THE Pompey) following the battle of Siler River.
In the aftermath of the war, Crassus famously crucified 6000+ of the surviving rebels along the Via Appa with each cross standing several feet apart from each other, from Capua to Rome.

Get the This is sparta mug.Similar to brownie points, except instead of simply gaining favour with a person, you gain an increased chance of being granted permission to have anal sex with that person.
This term is derived from an ancient Spartan courting tradition, where women were not allowed to marry a man until he had completed his military training, however the women had to remain virgins until married.
In order to secure the continued attention of a suitable spouse, it was extremely common for Spartan women to please their prospective partner with anal intercourse.
