Ground penetrating radar was used to map the remains a Roman gladiator school about 40 miles outside of Vienna, Austria. The find is reported to be “spectacular”, compared to the Ludus Magnus – the largest of the gladiatorial training schools in Rome. This facility contains sleeping cells, a bathing area, a training hall with heated floors, administrative buildings and a cemetery. [Source: Mail Online. Image: AP via Mail Online]
