More about Scipio

Publius Cornelius Scipio, known today as Scipio Africanus, pictured around age 27 during his campaigns conquering Spain from the Carthaginians between 210-206 BC (four years before his more famous defeat of Hannibal at Zama. Scipio was given a command at a young age out of the sheer needs imposed by the Second Punic War. Studying Hannibal's triumphs, he reformed the legions under his command to fight a more flexible style and employed many of the same tactics of his great rival. This image was inspired by Scipio's conquest of Carthago Nova and the subsequent Battle of Baecula in 208 BC.
