Battle of Bagradas
The Battle of Bagradas, also known as the Battle of Tunis,〔Lost Battles, Philip Sabin p174〕 was a battle between the Roman Republic and Carthage occurred in the spring of 255 BC during the First Punic War. The battle ended in a Carthaginian victory.
==Prelude==
The mercenary Spartan general Xanthippus was hired by the city of Carthage following heavy-handed negotiations by Rome. He made the Romans fight on open ground, which allowed him to maximize the effect of the excellent Carthaginian cavalry and elephants.
The Roman army under Marcus Atilius Regulus was based at Tunis. Faced by the resurgent Carthaginian army Regulus was keen to gain another victory rather than risk the chance that someone else would get the glory of eventual victory. All we have from the sources is Polybios' report that Regulus had 15,000 Infantry and 500 Cavalry when he returned home.〔Lost Battles, Philip Sabin p175〕
