Eunus & The First Servile War (135-132 BC)

Watch my latest history documentary here:- https://youtu.be/c3Hq6UaFQqk Today, Spartacus is a household name. But who has heard of Eunus? The rebel leader during the First Servile War (135-132 BC), an epic conflict between haves and have nots which has sadly been relegated to a minor footnote in history. Whilst Spartacus was a gladiator before he escaped from captivity, Eunus was an entertainer. His is a tale just as interesting as that of Spartacus’ war two generations later, yet one much more obscured by history today. —I write stories.
