Sophonisba
Late 3rd century BC Carthaginian noblewoman
Sophonisba
Sophonisba (Punic: 𐤑𐤐𐤍𐤁𐤏𐤋, romanized: Ṣaponi-Baʿal, lit. 'May Baʿal watch over me!'; fl. 206 - 203 BC) was a Carthaginian noblewoman who lived during the Second Punic War, and the daughter of Hasdrubal Gisco. She held influence over the Numidian political landscape, convincing king Syphax to change sides during the war, and later, in an act that became legendary, she poisoned herself rather than be humiliated in a Roman triumph.
