Topic: Syphax



  
 Publius Cornelius Scipio Africanus (236-184) : Africa
Laelius, he sent with Syphax as prisoner to Rome in order to report on his successes, while Massinissa was acclaimed as King of all Numidia before the army.
At the same time, Syphax had been turned by Carthaginian diplomacy to abandon his alliance with Scipio, and had married the daughter of Hasdrubal Gisgon, Sophonisba.
His envoys had noticed that the Numidian camp was poorly defended, and almost entirely made of highly combustible wood and thatch, and Scipio now made sure the entire camp was completely scouted by experienced Roman Centurions.

 Livy's History of Rome
Had I been simply the wife of Syphax I would still choose to trust to the honour of a Numidian, born under the same African sky as myself, rather than that of an alien and a foreigner.
Whilst the envoys were in conference these men strolled about the camp noting all the adits and exits, the general arrangement of the camp, the positions of the Carthaginians and Numidians, respectively, and the distance between Hasdrubal's camp and that of Syphax.
The Numidians and Carthaginians on the two wings were routed at the first charge; the former consisting mostly of peasants could not withstand the Roman horse, nor could the Carthaginians, also raw levies, hold their own against Masinissa, whose recent victory had made him more formidable than ever.

 Massinissa
Syphax consoled himself by saying that he had been beaten not by skill and valor but by stratagem.
Rome rejoiced greatly at the news that Hasdrubal had been killed and Syphax was a prisoner.
Henceforth Carthage would find him an implacable foe.

 ARLT - The Association for Latin Teaching.
Hasdrubal: Syphax had been an enemy of Carthage and had been supported by Scipio in Spain.
Bucar surprised Masinissa's camp, scattered most of his followers, hounded the survivors across Carthaginian territory, finally cornering the Numidian and his 50 remaining men near the town of Clupea.
While Syphax was busy occupying his lands, Masinissa rallied some of his supporters and began to launch raids against Syphax and the Carthaginians, whose vehement complaints obliged Syphax to send his general Bucar to hunt down Masinissa.

 Invasion of Africa
Near the Ampsaga River, Syphax fought his last battle as his outmatched force was badly beaten.
In the end, 40,000 enemy troops were dead with an additional 5,000 prisoners taken, but both Syphax and Hasdrubal escaped.
While Scipio had retained the services of Masinissa, another Numidian, King Syphax, maintained his loyalty to Carthage.

 Masinissa - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
According to Livy, Syphax, the prince of Eastern Numidia, had suddenly turned against his Carthaginian neighbors in the midst of the Second Punic War.
After his victory over Syphax, Masinissa commanded his skilled Numidian cavalryman in a successful guerilla campaign against the Romans in Iberia.
After the Carthaginian invasion of Europe and subsequent campaigns in Iberia and Italy during the Second Punic War, the Romans had sought an ally in North Africa to aid them against Carthage.

 MASSINISSA - LoveToKnow Article on MASSINISSA
Massinissa now quitted Spain for a while for Africa, and was again engaged in a war with Syphax in which he was decidedly worsted.
Scipio Africanus is said to have cultivated his friendship.
Massinissa, according to the story, married Sophonisba immediately after his victory, but was required by Scipio to dismiss her as a Carthaginian, and consequently an enemy to Rome.

 Appian's History of Rome: The Punic Wars
Four thousand of Syphax's men also were taken prisoners, of whom 2,500 were Massylians who had deserted from Massinissa to Syphax.
But Scipio called Syphax to the council, as he had shown himself sagacious and was acquainted with the country, and advised with him as Cyrus did with Croesus, king of
In this battle 10,000 of Syphax's men were killed.

 Syphax
Syphax sympathized with them, and in 214, Hasdrubal had been sent out against him.
Syphax's kingdom had suffered from this invasion, but he had not been defeated decisively.
The two Numidian kingdoms were united by Massinissa, and Syphax was shown in the triumph of Scipio as a symbol of his conquests.

 Aulus and Syphax discuss tactics
Syphax: A stern lecture was handed down later to their husbands and fathers, who were told action would be taken against them if it ever happened again.
Syphax: Well sir, there was an occurrence some years ago at one of the Games I was in that was rather ingenious if unfair.
All other things being equal he would stand a better chance against a dimacherius or a hoplomachus than against, say, a samnite or a murmillo.

There was no deed, record, will or document of any sort to show the right of possession and even had there been, the action of the Federal Government would have rendered such ownership null and void.
While all this was going on the Syphaxes were living on the little plot of land left Maria by Custis.
The bill proposed to release and confirm to Maria Syphax, her heirs and assigns, the title to a piece of land, being a part of the Arlington estate, upon which she had resided since about the year 1826.

 Syphax - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Originally he was allied with the Romans against Carthage but his wife Sophonisbe convinced him to do just the opposite.
Scipio Africanus, a Roman general, took him as a prisoner and he died in Rome in around 203 or 202 BC.
In the Battle of the Great Plains of the Second Punic War, Syphax was defeated and captured defeated at the fall of his capital city, Cirta, by the coalition led by the Roman commander Gaius Laelius and Masinissa, King of Numidia.

 Cirta
Syphax was thrown from his wounded horse and captured while trying to rally his troops.
Cirta, 203 BC Scipio besieges Utica with half his army and sends the other half under the Roman Laelius and Masinissa, the allied Numidian king, against Syphax, the Numidan king allied with Carthage.
Syphax's Massaesylians got the worst of the fighting from the start, then broke as Laelius' legionaries approached.

 Scipio and Syphax
So great was Scipio's charm that not only Syphax, but Hadsrubal as well, were taken in by his personality.
It is reported that he arrived at the Numidian harbor at exactly the same time as Hadsrubal (who had fled from Spain) was anchored there on his way back to Carthage.
Syphax appeared committed but Hasdrubal Gisgo (the Carthaginian) played a trump in providing his extraordinarily beautiful daughter, Sophonisbe, to be the Numidian queen.

 Las Vegas SUN: Cost of housing at issue
But some at the roundtable said groups should increase the monetary amount of down payment assistance, because it often is not enough with rising housing prices.
Syphax said the group works to keep builders or sellers from padding the contribution amount into the price of the home.
"The credit quality issue is really challenging," Syphax said, as is keeping people able to continue making payments once they have moved into their home.

Nehemiah President and Chief Executive Officer Scott Syphax says that a decade ago, the notion of putting low- or moderate-income families into homeownership without a downpayment was considered dangerous.
The Department of Housing and Urban Development’s recent proposal to have a zero downpayment plan for homeownership copies what groups like Nehemiah advocate.
Claims were made that the families who could not afford the traditional 3 percent downpayment were considered not just risky but somehow morally defective.
