## Resource

⁠⁠⁠⁠Help keep our podcast going by contributing to our Patreon! When we think of large Roman slave rebellions, we usually think of Spartacus. But what if we told you that Spartacus was only the third in a 30-year cycle of slave rebellions that happened twice before? The wars that came before Spartacus were larger, more all-encompassing, and maybe more violent—sweeping up hundreds of thousands of people before the rebellions were done. And their leaders—one a very salty birthday magician, the other a skilled astrologer —were just as epic. We’re on hiatus until April 9. Until then, enjoy our episodes on the First and Second Servile Wars, all in one place. Sponsors and Advertising This podcast is a member of Airwave Media podcast network.
