I have a number of books on this battle but there seems to be some disagreement about how many legions participated. Some state that Scipio had three legions and others say two. Is there recent research that clarifies this? The total number of Roman and Allied (excluding Numidan) cavalry would seem to indicate that there were two legions plus the Allied wings. if there were three legions and three Allied wings the cavalry proportion would seem to be low. <p></p><i></i>
