Well, I think it was something of a more significant combat and the monument of Kbor Klib* represents the best evidence for telling us about the true nature of the battle. It also provides us the answer to the question as to why the Romans did not return to build a permanent memorial to such an important battle. Zama was largely a Numidian victory - aided by the Roman cavalry, which was most likely commanded by Laelius.
