We know Hannibal crossed the Alps with elephants, but how did he keep his army fed, his plans secret, and his allies loyal for 15 years in enemy territory? This episode dives into the shadow war behind the Second Punic War: Hannibal's sophisticated intelligence network. We explore how Carthaginian spies infiltrated Rome's socii, the role of Gallic scouts and Numidian riders in reconnaissance, the use of coded messages and signal fires, and the surprising story of a Roman prisoner who may have become a double agent. We also look at how Rome eventually turned the tables — Scipio Africanus's own spycraft in Africa, and the betrayal that led to Hannibal's defeat at Zama. Drawing on Polybius, Livy, and recent scholarship, we uncover the tradecraft of antiquity. #Hannibal #SecondPunicWar #AncientEspionage #Carthage #Rome #MilitaryIntelligence #Polybius #Livy #ScipioAfricanus #Numidian #Gallic #Socii #Spycraft #SignalFires #Barcid #NorthAfrica #History #FexingoHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
