The War Elephants of Carthage

The History Guy examines the history and mystery of Hannibal's war elephants. What kind of elephant did Hannibal use to cross the Alps during the Punic Wars against Rome? The answer may surprise you.

The History Guy uses images that are in the Public Domain. As photographs of actual events are often not available, I will sometimes use photographs of similar events or objects for illustration.
