Hippo Regius
Around ten thousand enemies were killed, those surviving the battle being put to the sword by the furious soldiers in spite of Caesar's repeated orders to spare them, which were ignored. [[Plutarch]] reports that according to some sources Caesar had an [[epileptic]] seizure just before he ordered his lines forward, causing confusion and orders to be disobeyed. Scipio himself escaped, only to commit suicide months later in a naval battle near [[Hippo Regius]].
