Servile Wars

Template:Short description The Servile Wars were a series of three slave revolts ("servile" is derived from servus, Latin for "slave") in the late Roman Republic:

• First Servile War (135−132 BC) — in Sicily, led by Eunus, a former slave claiming to be a prophet, and Cleon from Cilicia.
• Second Servile War (104−100 BC) — in Sicily, led by Athenion and Tryphon.
• Third Servile War (73−71 BC) — on mainland Italy, led by Spartacus.
