The History of Hannibal Barker

Hannibal's story is one of the more famous stories of an individual during the Roman era. His story begins where we left off last week with the Iberian city of Seguntham. The Romans were not in a good position to interfere in this siege directly so they sent ambassadors to Carthage. But Hannibal was far from impressed and he decided to besiege it himself. A brutal battle ensued sparking the beginning of the Second Punic War.
