The Gladiatoria Group is a series of several 15th century German manuscripts that share the same art style and cover the same material—various types of armored fencing. These are interesting texts in that they seem to be contemporary with the tradition of Johannes Liechtenauer, but not directly influenced by it. Gladiatoria is thus one of very few glimpses into the characteristics of a potentially independent German martial tradition.
While the three oldest texts in the Gladiatoria complex present a fairly identical set of plays, the slightly later Wolfenbüttel version contains significantly more material, primarily in the dagger section. The origin of this additional material is unknown, and the text-less nature of that manuscript makes it difficult to place these plays in any sort of context.
