At the end of the First Punic War in 246 BC, Carthage found herself confronted with a dilemma. Large numbers of Greek, Italian, and African mercenaries had been hired to pursue the war with Rome, and now Carthage, defeated and bankrupt, had no money for the pay owed to them. Rebellion broke out in Sardinia and Africa. The latter situation became critical when one of the leaders, Matho, a native Libyan, inspired the native population to join the mercenaries against their Punic overlords. Hamilcar Barca, the great Carthaginian general, finally suppressed the revolt in 238 BC. Estimate: 750 USD |  |
