EUPHEMIA OF CHALCEDON SCOURGED IN THE ARENA​

Euphemia was born about 288 AD in Chalcedon (today: Kadıköy, now a quarter of Istanbul, Turkey) into a wealthy, aristocratic family. She and her parents had become Christians and lived a pious life, using their wealth to support the poor.
In 303, during the era of Diocletianus, Euphemia was requested to make a sacrifice to Ares, the Greek god of war. She refused and was promptly arrested. She was cruelly tortured; the legend mentions scourging and hot irons. Her body was lacerated with a spiked wheel, but her wounds healed overnight. Finally she was thrown to wild beasts and killed by them.

It’s consoling to know her wounds were healed so she would be an unmolested meal for the animals.
Very merciful.

MARGARETA OF ANTIOCHIA TORTURE WITH IRON HOOKS

According to a 9th-century martyrology of Rabanus Maurus, she suffered at Antioch in Pisidia (in what is now Turkey) in around 304, during the Diocletianic persecution. She was the daughter of a pagan priest named Aedesius. Her mother having died soon after her birth, Margareta was nursed by a Christian woman five or six leagues (6.9–8.3 miles) from Antioch. Having embraced Christianity and consecrated her virginity to God, Margaret was disowned by her father, adopted by her nurse, and lived in the country keeping sheep with her foster mother. Olybrius, Governor of the Roman Diocese of the East, asked to marry her, but with the demand that she renounce Christianity. Upon her refusal, she was cruelly tortured, in various ways. Eventually, she was decapitated.

The young Christian girl was among the 30 criminals to be exhibited and tortured in the Roman arena. She was tied up on a cross, but not nailed to it. The authorities had decided to spare her life. She was young and vigorous, a perfect slave to row in a Roman galley. But first she had to be punished. The guard used “the claw” to torture her. He brought the instrument just below her full breasts and raked it across her chest, leave three bloody lines in its wake.

Her screams blended in with the other female howls and yells resounding in the arena as each woman underwent their individual torment. Since there were so many displays of cruelty, each one different from the other her abuse did not attract much attention. The guard raked her naked flesh five more times, sadistically including her vulnerable pussy. She hung limply on her cross, barely conscious through the haze of pain and agony. She would hang there for several hours until all the tortures had been completed and the blood lust of the spectators satiated. Then she was taken down from the cross and dragged across the sands of the arena to a waiting cart where she would be thrown in with the other survivors and hauled away.

Why are the subjects already bloodied? If the cats got to her already there would be a lot LESS of her in the picture... just wondering...

Before the cats are let loose, our bodies are slashed or scourged to draw blood - that's sure to attract the hungry felines. ..

Maybe what Eulalia said...
...or maybe the cats are well trained to play a bit with the girls, to increase their suffering and the crowd pleasure...
