I guess that my question made it clear that I was looking for female versions of gladiator types so the meaning stays the same because it still refers to the "profession", i.e. a male gladiator or a female gladiator.

Thanks for your swift answers, but I forgot another type for which I would like to know the female version and here I have no clue:

thraex

Would here the same rule apply as for murmillo that it stays the same and you could see it only if it is female or male when using an adjective?

I wonder if I got the following female versions right:

murmillo = murmilla
secutor = secutrix
hoplomachus = hoplomacha
retiarius = retiaria

Gratias tibi ago in advance for your help,

Just to make clear, I will not run for any office either. I had to resign from my last office and pass it to Quintus Servilius Priscus due to being to busy with running my own gladiator group. I'm off now to the next training session.

I got some more pics of the Ara Pacis and wouldn't mind to let you have them for your purposes if you need them. Not that there are aleady as many published as for the Trajan's markets which I had suggested in my PM.

Sorry mi Mari,

The picture needs to be found on a website, otherwise it is not possible to attach any picture to a post. I don't have 'em uploaded to a website [/img]
