Hello,
I know two different ''theories'' about the meaning of the crossed O in dead gladiators.
In one hand, it is the initial letter of the greek word Thanatos (death), and in the other hand, the initial letter of the latin verb Obiit (to kill).
I think that is more logical the first ''theory'', because is a crossed O, a greek letter.
What do you think?
Thank's
