The Hammer

The Hammer preparing to finish off an opponent

"This titanic gladiator hails from the Cambrian hills of Britannia! He's a raging beast and formidable foe! He's the Ordovician!"

―The Cyrene Arena owner describing The Hammer.

The Hammer was a warrior from a "tribe of hammer-wielding savages" from the Cambrian hills of Britannia who fought in the Gladiator Arena of Cyrene.

Before he became a gladiator, he had his tongue cut out by unknown means. In 47 BCE, he was challenged by Bayek of Siwa, who witnessed him crush an opponent who had yielded. The gladiator was then defeated by the Medjay with a sword.
