Aanvullende informatie

Adherbal inherited the eastern half of Numidia after the kingdom was divided between him and his brother Hiempsal following the death of Micipsa in 118 BC. The arrangement was almost immediately unstable — Jugurtha, their illegitimate half-brother, had Hiempsal murdered within months and spent the next several years maneuvering against Adherbal diplomatically and militarily. Bronze coinage from Adherbal's reign is necessarily short-lived; Jugurtha besieged and captured Cirta in 112 BC, executing Adherbal and triggering the Jugurthine War with Rome.
