web page:
"Hannibal is said to be the greatest military
leader and strategist of all time. Hannibal was
born in 247 B.C., when Carthage, then the
maritime power, was beginning to decline. The
Carthaginians were descendants of the
Phoenicians, who were great Black merchants.
They traded with India and the people of the
Mediterranean, and the Scilly Isles. When very young, Hannibal accompanied
Hamilclar, his father in a battle with the
Romans. Seventeen years later, he succeeded
his father and became supreme commander of
the peninsula. Hannibal had 80,000 infantry,
12,000 cavalry, and 40 African war elephants.
He conquered major portions of Spain and
France, and all of Italy, except for Rome. Hannibal marched his army and war elephants
through the Alps to surprise and conquer his
enemies. In one battle, the Romans put 80,000
men on the field to defeat Hannibal, led by
Scipio. When Scipio attacked with his entire
army, Hannibal had so studied the grounds and
arranged his men so that they surrounded the
Romans. He then turned his armored war
elephants loose and trampled them. Behind
them, he sent his African swordsmen to
complete the slaughter. In another battle, Rome sent 90,000 men led by
Varro and Emilius. With only 50,000 men,
knowing he could not win by using his main
force, Hannibal placed the weakest part of his
army in the center, contrary to the best military
rules. With his veterans and cavalry on both
wings, the Romans struck them in full center as
Hannibal had anticipated. When they were sure
of victory by overcoming the center, Hannibal's
flank closed in and killed 70,000 men, 80
senators and Emilius. Hannibal later went on to become a statesman
of Carthage, and later took his own life, rather
than surrender to Rome"
