⚔️ Gladiatorial Logics

  • Pairing systems: Experience-matched combats prevent anticlimax.
  • Equipment control: Lethality calibrated by festival and funding.
  • Medical stations: Ancient triage near vomitoria.

🐾 Venationes (Hunts)

  • Arena sand: Hides trapdoors and mitigates blood pooling.
  • Animal entries: Tunnels manage risk and surprise.
  • Staging: Painted scenery, collapsible props.

Safety engineering existed: sand depth, barrier placement, and crew drill reduced hazards while sustaining spectacle.

[^calendar]: Programming aligned with civic calendars, imperial visits, and local patronage.
