Louis Robert saw a relief of four gladiators from Thyateira and stated with confidence that one was named kinaedos - so of course I got all excited about the possibilities because it's just so WEIRD. Finally got my hands on a high res photo, and it turns out the gladiator is named kandidos. Boring.
