PREFACE It has been the aim of this revision to preserve the general characteristics of the old edition while making such changes as newly accessible material and new methods of instruction have made desirable, — such changes as the original editors would have been likely to make if they had lived to carry through the work of revision. In the introduction a few new paragraphs have been incor¬ porated, and some alterations made in the old text. In the notes some simple grammatical explanations and refer¬ ences, and some translations of easy words and phrases, have been omitted, a few notes have been altered or expanded, and a considerable number of new notes added, though it has been the aim not to mar the simplicity characteristic of the old edi¬ tion by elaborate annotation. The notes on persons, except such parts of them as seemed necessary for the understanding of the text to which they apply, have been taken out of the main body of the notes and put together in an alphabetical index at the end of the book.

  • Revision and Reconstruction of the Battles of Cannae (216 Bce) and Zama (202 Bce)
    1 REVISION AND RECONSTRUCTION OF THE BATTLES OF CANNAE (216 BCE) AND ZAMA (202 BCE) Yozan D. Mosig and Imene Belhassen University of Nebraska at Kearney 2 Revision and Reconstruction in the Punic Wars: Cannae Revisited. Yozan D. Mosig and Imene Belhassen University of Nebraska-Kearney 2006 [Publication data: Mosig, Y., & Belhassen, I. (2006). Revision and reconstruction in the Punic Wars: Cannae revisited. The International Journal of the Humanities, 4(2), 103-110.] 3 Abstract The history of the wars between Carthage and Rome was rewritten by two pro-Roman historians, Polybius and Titus Livius. The former, while usually more reliable, revised facts that would have shown his employers, the Scipionic/Aemilian family, in an unfavorable light, while the latter, a clear Roman patriotic propagandist, embellished history to suit his purposes. Accounts of the wars by Carthaginian historians seem to have been lost or been conveniently destroyed. Nevertheless, gaps and contradictions in the Roman accounts, together with a modern understanding of human motivation and environmental circumstances, allow for the reconstruction of the original events. A case in point is the battle of Cannae, in 216 BCE, where a modern analysis reveals the real reasons for Hannibal’s victory, the true strengths of the armies of Romans and Carthaginians, the identity of the actual commander of the Roman forces, the correct casualty figures, and the likely reasons for Hannibal’s refusal to march on Rome following his great victory. 4 The battle of Cannae, between the multi-ethnic forces of the Carthaginian general Hannibal Barca and the much larger Roman army under the command of consuls Lucius Aemilius Paulus and Gaius Terentius Varro, in 216 BCE, was without a doubt one of the most significant battles in history.

  • Fabius Maximus Was Appointed Dictator for Six Months, Following the Defeat of the Roman Army and the Death of Consul Gaius Flaminius at Lake Trasimene in 217 BCE
    CANNAE: POINTS OF CONTROVERSY IN THE CLASSICAL RECORD OF POLYBIUS AND LIVY A SERIES OF ARTICLES IN COMMEMORATION OF THE 2228th ANNIVERSARY OF HANNIBAL’S VICTORY AT THE BATTLE OF CANNAE, August 2, 2012, by Prof. Yozan Mosig (University of Nebraska-Kearney) FOREIGN MEMBER OF COMITATO ITALIANO PRO CANNE DELLA BATTAGLIA. #1. Who was actually in command of the massive Roman army that fought at Cannae? Fabius Maximus was appointed dictator for six months, following the defeat of the Roman army and the death of consul Gaius Flaminius at Lake Trasimene in 217 BCE. He wisely followed Hannibal at a distance with his army, harassing the Carthaginians but refusing to face Hannibal in battle (an approach that has become known as Fabian tactics). This earned him the derogatory nickname of “Cunctator”, or “delayer”. Roman pride could not tolerate the situation for long, and at the end of his term the Senate replaced Fabius with two new consuls who were given the specific assignment of dealing with Hannibal once and for all. The traditional account names the consuls as the prudent and aristocratic Lucius Aemilius Paullus and the brash and impulsive Gaius Terentius Varro, a plebeian, the son of a butcher. Varro was a demagogue and a braggart, and it was supposedly he who was in command at the time of the battle, and thus deserves the blame for the worst military disaster in the history of Rome. But was Varro really in command? And did Aemilius Paullus advise against engaging Hannibal in battle, as the classical accounts (Polybius and Livy) claim? The consuls alternated command on a daily basis, and we are told that Aemilius Paullus refused to commit himself to battle the previous day, but on August 2, when Varro was in charge, the hot-headed plebeian consul ordered the Roman army to deploy for battle.

  • Historical Background Scipio Brothers Consolidated Their Carthage Held All of Southern and Control North of the Ebro and Prepared Eastern Spain, up to the Ebro River
    Romans. However, Gnaeus Scipio reinforced his fleet with picked legion- naires, caught the Carthaginian fleet by surprise, and crushed it at the Battle of the Ebro. In the fall of 217 BC, Publius Cornelius Scipio, now a pro-consul, finally arrived in his allotted province with 8,000 reinforcements. Meanwhile, in Italy, Hannibal won three spectacular victories over the Romans at Trebbia, Trasimene, and Cannae by the summer of 216 BC. The Carthaginian government resolved that the time had come to reinforce Hannibal in Italy with an army from Spain and bring the war to a conclusion. Carthage sent Hasdrubal 4,000 foot and 500 horse as reinforcements, along with orders to march for Italy. A rebellion among the Tartesii tribe in southern Spain, how- ever, delayed his invasion until the following year.

  • (NRCE) Study Guide – Advanced Level
    National Roman Civilization Exam (NRCE) Study Guide – Advanced Level By Connor Harrison and José Molina This study guide is meant to be good approximation of the material needed to know for the NRCE exam. It is not meant to be fully comprehensive, but should cover most things that could be asked on the exam for Roman History and Roman Life. This guide is adapted from Connor Harrison’s Roman History Notes and José Molina’s Roman Life Notes. Please note that Ancient Geography, although asked on the NRCE, is not yet included in this version of the study guide. Ancient Geography includes, but is not limited to, directions to and from ancient locations, modern names of ancient cities (and vice versa), and names and destinations of ancient Roman roads. 1 Roman History By Connor Harrison MONARCHY (753-510 B.C.) 7 KINGS - Romulus o Lineage . Mother was Rhea Silvia, father was Mars (the God) Rhea Silvia was the daughter of Numitor, whose brother Amulius had stolen the throne of Alba Longa Romulus and his brother Remus were thrown into the Tiber River, recovered by a she-wolf, and raised by the shepard Faustulus The wife of Faustulus was Acca Larentia o Romulus and Remus . Romulus had a brother, Remus . There was a dispute over where the city would be settled, so Romulus settled the Palatine hill, Remus settled the Aventine hill . According to one account, Romulus is said to have seen 12 vultures while Remus was said to have seen 6, meaning Romulus had superior augury and had say over where the city should be .

  • Rome Falls for Another Carthaginian Ambush
    By David Davies THEME ROME FALLS FOR ANOTHER CARTHAGINIAN AMBUSH FOOL ME THREE TIMES! The saying goes “Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me.” But what about three times? After the battles of the Trebia (218 BC) and Lake Trasimene (217 BC), the Roman military had time and again walked into am- bushes set up by Hannibal, and had paid the price dearly.

  • Study Guide – Intermediate Level
    National Roman Civilization Exam (NRCE) Study Guide – Intermediate Level By Connor Harrison and José Molina This study guide is meant to be good approximation of the material needed to know for the NRCE exam. It is not meant to be fully comprehensive, but should cover most things that could be asked on the exam for Roman History and Roman Life. This guide is adapted from Connor Harrison’s Roman History Notes and José Molina’s Roman Life Notes. Please note that Ancient Geography, although asked on the NRCE, is not yet included in this version of the study guide. Ancient Geography includes, but is not limited to, directions to and from ancient locations, modern names of ancient cities (and vice versa), and names and destinations of ancient Roman roads. 1 Roman History By Connor Harrison MONARCHY (753-510 B.C.) 7 KINGS - Romulus o Lineage . Mother was Rhea Silvia, father was Mars (the God) Romulus and his brother Remus were thrown into the Tiber River, recovered by a she-wolf, and raised by the shepard Faustulus The wife of Faustulus was Acca Larentia o Romulus and Remus . Romulus had a brother, Remus . There was a dispute over where the city would be settled, so Romulus settled the Palatine hill, Remus settled the Aventine hill . According to one account, Romulus is said to have seen 12 vultures while Remus was said to have seen 6, meaning Romulus had superior augury and had say over where the city should be . Remus leaps over the walls on Romulus’ hill and is killed by Romulus.
