May be this is been asked before.
When you see gladiators being displayed they are very "Rome" like.
Were the gladiators (types) in the provinces like Germany, Gaul, Brittan exactly the same as in Pompei and Rome.
Or is there any evidence that there were different types with different equipment.
This is because we prefer to show the Roman era (civilian, military, gladiator) from our region and not from another area.
