"ASTIVUS - Villa Borghese."

He is a Secutor as evidenced by his fight with a retiarius. In fact that whole section seems to be Secutors vs Retiarius.


"Thracians without Griffon Crests - same source"


Are there any Thraicians in this mosaic ? Do you have an illustrations please ?


"Pergamon helmet - Provacator?murmillo? other?"

Why would you associate this as a possible Provocator helmet?

I would say ther are possibilities of it being both Murmillo & Thracian as the Griffin was I believe detachable or at least an add on to various types of peaked helmet. There is a Griffin attachment found at Illerup bog in Denmark which has been attributed to being from a Roman helmet. I believe this might belong to a gladiators helmet of this type.
