In this documentary episode we continue our series on the history of the Jugurthine War. Previously, King Jugurtha had managed to deviously seize the throne of Numidia and thwarted all Roman attempts to interfere through bribery of battlefield ruses. Now however he has met his equal in the form of Consul Metellus. Their clash in the campaign of 109 BC would be the most brutal fight of the war yet with the battle of Muthul and the Siege of Zama.

Stay tuned as we continue to cover the history of this forgotten war in North Africa.
