Siege of Utica

204–201 BC siege of the Second Punic War

The siege of Utica took place from 204 to 201 BC when a Roman army under Publius Cornelius Scipio attempted to seize the port of Utica to use as a secure base from which to defeat the Carthaginian Empire in its North African homeland. The First Punic War was fought between Carthage and Rome for 23 years, from 264–241 BC. After a 23-year interbellum, war broke out again in 218 BC as the Second Punic War.
