Secutor

Secutor

The Secutor was a gladiator of the Roman Empire. Its origin dates back to 50 AD, and was similar to another category of gladiators called Mymilons. Like these, the tailors were heavily armed and wore heavy armor. Normally, the secutor wielded a short sword or a dagger. The secutor was specially trained to fight with the reciario, a type of gladiator armed with a net, a dagger and a trident. His peculiar helm had only two eye-holes, so as to prevent an attack with the trident of the Reverend; the top of the helmet was rounded to avoid being caught by the net of this last gladiator. The protections he wore around his neck were soft and shaped like fish fins. Due to the weight, and the lack of space under the helmet, the secutor had to win the combat at the beginning; otherwise, he would be exhausted quickly, and might even faint. The tailor wore a thong and a wide belt. On his right arm he wore a manica, and on his left leg he used a strike. It was also equipped with a scutum. O Secutor era um tipo de gladiador do Império Romano. A sua origem data de 50 d.C., e era semelhante a outra categoria de gladiadores designados por mirmilões. Tal como estes, os secutores estavam fortemente armados e usavam uma armadura bastante pesada. Normalmente, o secutor empunhava uma espada curta ou um punhal. O secutor era especialmente treinado para lutar com o reciário, um tipo de gladiador armado com uma rede, um punhal e um tridente. O seu peculiar elmo tinha, apenas, dois buracos para os olhos, por forma a prevenir um ataque com o tridente do reciário; o topo do elmo era arredondado para assim evitar ser apanhado pela rede deste último gladiador. As protecções que usava à volta do pescoço eram macias e tinham a forma de barbatanas de peixe. Devido ao peso, e à falta de espaço debaixo do elmo, o secutor tinha que ganhar o combate logo no início; caso contrário, ficava exausto rapidamente, podendo mesmo desmaiar. O secutor vestia uma tanga e um largo cinto. No seu braço direito, usava uma manica, e na sua perna esquerda, usava uma greva. Estava, também, equipado com um scutum.
