Gladiatrix
A two thousand year old statue shows a topless female gladiator in a pose of victory.
She holds up a 'sica' - a cruel curved short sword used in arena matches by gladiators, who were often captured warriors from other countries.
Few statues of female gladiators have ever been found, after the Emperor Septimus banned the fairer sex from gladiatorial combat in AD200.
