"Numantia (Numancia in Spanish) is the name of an ancient Celtiberian settlement... famous for its role in the Celtiberian Wars. In the year 153 B.C. Numantia experienced its first serious conflict with Rome. After 20 years of hostilities, in the year 133 BC the Roman Senate gave Scipio Aemilianus Africanus the task of destroying Numantia. He laid siege to the city, erecting a nine-kilometre fence supported by towers, moats, impaling rods and so on. After 13 months of siege, the Numantians decided to burn the city and die free rather than live and be slaves." Vg / soft cover. Stock#46209.
