metadigital Posted October 29, 2005 Share Posted October 29, 2005 Actually the signal sent by the Emperor to indicate his desire that the gladiator should be shown mercy was to hold the hand out with the thumb pointing horizontally, inward; his displeasure and the ultimate death of the gladiator was indicated by the hand in the same position giving the same gesture, except that the thumb was held between the fingers.

Of more concern to me than the producers (writers / directors / whatever) of Hollywood revenue streams lack of research, is the tendency of the general public to accept film narratives as de facto historical fact (I'm thinking of Oliver Stone's JFK). In any case, I don't think it does any harm to repeat facts often and loud, so that there is no confusion ... also I find reciting facts helps me to remember them ... :cool: Edit: PS I love Authority. The "Mod Appreciation" thread has always been locked.

Reveilled Posted October 29, 2005 Share Posted October 29, 2005 Actually the signal sent by the Emperor to indicate his desire that the gladiator should be shown mercy was to hold the hand out with the thumb pointing horizontally, inward; his displeasure and the ultimate death of the gladiator was indicated by the hand in the same position giving the same gesture, except that the thumb was held between the fingers. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I thought an outstretched fist with the thumb inside the fist was the sign of mercy, while a fist with the thumb pointed toward the throat indicated death.
