Dear members,

I`ve just posted a follow up piece to my earlier paper on Kbor Klib and the ancient sources. In it I try to explore the possibilities of finding evidence there for either Polybius` grand battle of Zama, or for Appian`s cavalry battle.
I hope you`ll find it of some interest!

Polybius might have called it Margaron or Livy could have named it Naraggara.

But who was it who first referred to it as Zama?
