Our newest documentary examines the Battle of Himera in the First Punic Sicilian War (480 BCE).
Long before Carthage and Rome faced off in the climactic Punic Wars for control of the Mediterranean, the island of Sicily played host to a series of 7 great wars between the Carthaginians and the Greeks. But to understand these Punic Sicilian Wars, we must first understand the region. This documentary begins with an exploration of the geography and history of Sicily before tracing the stages which progressively drew Carthage into this theater of operations.
Enjoy!
