Some gladiatorial matches were terminated by a fatal blow. A few were declared a draw. The majority, however, ended when one of the gladiators raised a finger in the gesture of submission. His fate then depended on the mood of the audience - and the wealth of the games’ sponsor.
For more on the gladiators and many other aspects of classical life, check out my book “Naked Statues, Fat Gladiators, and War Elephants: Frequently Asked Questions about the Ancient Greeks and Romans.”
