Sixth documentary podcast featuring the biography of Publius Cornelius Scipio Aemilianus, one of the most brilliant generals in Roman history. Among his many great achievements, it is worth highlighting the destruction of Carthage and Numantia. Aemilianus was the adopted grandson of the legendary Publius Cornelius Scipio Africanus.

The First Senator of Rome: amzn.to/3XhM7yD
Numantia, the wrath of the Scipios: amzn.to/3IP2Sg3
