How did the decline of gladiatorial games affect Lanistae?

The decline of gladiatorial games significantly impacted lanistae, the trainers and managers of gladiators. As public interest waned, their primary source of income diminished, leading many to seek alternative livelihoods. The shift in entertainment preferences also forced lanistae to adapt, either by diversifying their offerings or transitioning into other forms of combat sports, ultimately reshaping their roles in society.
