《Crucifixion as Capital Punishment被釘十字架為死刑的刑罰》
It is hard to imagine a more hideous form of capital punishment. Crucifixion was believed to be an effective deterrent in the ancient world and was thus frequently employed.
很難想像有比十字架更可怕的死刑方式。被釘十字架被認為是古代世界最有威懾效果的刑罰，因此經常被使用。
Appian reported that following the defeat of Spartacus, the victor Crassus had 6,000 prisoners crucified on the Via Appia between Capua and Rome (Bella Civilia, I.120).
斯巴達克斯Spartacus的追隨者，被克拉蘇（Crassus）打敗後，有6000人沿著Capua到羅馬的the Via Appia大道上，被釘死十字架。
Before their final battle, Spartacus himself had a Roman prisoner crucified to warn his men of their fate should they be defeated.
在他們決戰之前，斯巴達克斯本人將一個羅馬囚犯釘在十字架上，以警告他的部隊，如果他們被擊敗，他們的命運也將如此。
It is strangely ironic that Julius Caesar was hailed as being merciful to his enemies when he ordered their throats cut prior to their being crucified in order to spare them the indescribable suffering of prolonged agony on the cross.
具有諷刺意味的是，Julius Caesar凱撒被稱為對他的敵人仁慈，因為他下令他們在被釘十字架之前，割傷他們的喉嚨，以免他們在十字架上遭受長時間、難以形容的痛苦所折磨。
