The story of Hannibal didn't stop at Cannae. Following this victory he met obstacle and success as he took on Rome in southern Italy.

In this episode I unwrap what happened and how it all led to his final battle with Rome at Zama (which I also discuss).

Episode notes with a readling list, transcription and other useful content is on my website www.ancientblogger.com
