EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in ancient history, specifically the Battle of Crimisus in 339 BC. The image depicts Timoleon, leading only 10,000 Sicilians against a massive Carthaginian army of 70,000 soldiers. Despite being vastly outnumbered, Timoleon and his forces emerged victorious at the Crimisus river.
The events that unfolded on that fateful day not only showcased Timoleon's strategic brilliance but also highlighted the resilience and determination of the Sicilian people. However, despite this impressive victory, the Carthaginians continued to hold onto their stronghold in Sicily.
This photograph serves as a powerful reminder of the enduring legacy of ancient civilizations and the impact of historical events on shaping our world today. It transports viewers back in time to witness firsthand the intensity and drama of one of Rome's most significant battles.
As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are reminded of the sacrifices made by those who came before us and inspired by their unwavering commitment to defending their homeland. The Battle of Crimisus is etched into history as a testament to human courage and perseverance in the face of overwhelming odds.
