He is befriended by Varro, a Roman who sold himself into slavery in order to pay his debts and support his family. Noting well the Thracian's fierce raw talent and popularity with the masses, Batiatus purchases him for training within the walls of his ludus under the tutelage of Oenomaus, a former gladiator and fellow slave who is known to the gladiators as 'Doctore', meaning instructor. The prisoner's true name unknown, Lentulus Batiatus, the owner of a ludus in Capua, suggests to name him 'Spartacus', because he fought like the ferocious Thracian king of that name.
