Roman Gladiator Fought a Lion in Britain?!

Just when you think Roman history can’t get wilder—archaeologists found a skeleton in York with bite marks from a lion! This is the first real proof that human-animal gladiator fights happened in Roman Britain, not just in Rome. Imagine being in the crowd, watching someone take on a lion in what’s now England. The marks on the bones match a big cat’s bite, so it’s not just a story—it's actual evidence. Wild, right? #RomanHistory #Archaeology #Gladiators #HistoryNerd #York #AncientBritain #Science
