According to the 1960 movie, Spartacus, he was crucified by Crassus. Spartacus had been captured in a battle and first had to fight Antoninus to the death, the winner to be crucified. Spartacus didn't want Antoninus to suffer on a cross, so he killed him in the fight.
The main thing that Spatacus did was that he was the 1st slave to lead a revolt against the Roman Empire. In the battle the Romans won and Spatacus and all the people captured alive were crucified. This was the normal punishment in those days for anyone who challenged the power of Rome.
