Archobarzane (original) (raw)

Archobarzane, grandson of Syphax, was the last king of the Masaesylians, after his father Vermina. Contrary to his father, who sought peace with the Romans after the Second Punic War, Archobarzane seems to have been in favor of Carthage. His kingdom was therefore annexed by Massinissa around 157 BC, with the blessing of Rome.
