This is a monster of a video - possibly my longest ever. There is an idea that perhaps the Battle of Zama never happened, and it is an interesting starting point to talk about the use of elephants in ancient battles, and the tactics of the battle itself, and in my usual rambling way I manage to sidetrack myself and... oh dear. With a bit more planning, this could have been four or five shorter videos.
