From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
The Third Servile War was an unsuccessful slave uprising against the Romans in Italy, under command of the famous Spartacus. The war lasted from 73 BC until 71 BC, and resulted in Pompey and Crassus being elected consul. It was the last of a series of three slave revolts in the Roman Republic.
