The Battle of Thermopylae
Depicting the last stand of the 300 Spartans who fought to the death
against an overwhelming Persian Army. Second in a series by Brian Palmer
of "Great Last Stands" throughout history.
Alexander the Greats Victory at Hydaspes River
During the Macedonian conquests in 326BC at the
tributary at Hydaspes (now Jhelem) of the Indus River, King Porus and
his Indian army blocked Alexander the Great's advance with some 50,000
troops leaving 40,000, the bulk of his army, on the west bank of the
river. Alexander the Great crossed the Indus river using makeshift
pontoons with 14,000 picked cavalry and infantry. The following day he
attacked the flank of King Porus' position, after 8 hours of hard
fighting, Alexander the Great's army routed the Indians, taking 9,000
prisoner including King Porus and killing 12,000. The Macedonian army
lost 980 men and this was the last battle of the Asian conquest as
Alexander's army rebelled and refused to go further.
The Battle of Zama The second Punic War between Rome and Carthage was brought to a conclusion
on the plains of Zama (modern Tunisia), with the Romans inflicting a crushing
defeat on the army of Hannibal.
Ambush of the XI Legion
Driven by revenge for the brutal treatment she had suffered at the
hands of the Romans, Queen Boadicea led the Iceni and her allies the
Trinovantas in open revolt. The IX Legion Hispania was despatched to
suppress the insurrection but were ambushed en route. Only the commander
Petilius Cerealis, and a handful of cavalry escaped.
The
Battle of Kadesh - circa 1275 BC In 1275 BC
there were two superpowers in the ancient near east, in the south the
Egyptians and in the north the Hittites from Anatolia in modern day
central Turkey. A clash between these two powers was
inevitable. The Egyptian Pharaoh Rameses II marched an army north
into Syria to confront the Hittites and their allies under King
Muwatallis. Reaching Kadesh Rameses camped under the walls of the
city with his leading division, Amun, and awaited the arrival of the
rest of his army. Poor intelligence had led Rameses to believe the
Hittites were far to the north, in fact they were only 2 - 3 miles
away. Muwatallis delivered a surprise attack against Rameses camp
but the Egyptians managed to hold on until re-enforcements
arrived. Despite retreating from the field after a day long battle
it was Rameses who claimed a victory. The two armies never clashed
again and eventually a peace treaty was signed between the Egyptians and
the Hittites.
Battle of Marathon The Battle of
Marathon 490 BC during the Persian Greek Wars. King Darious I of Persia
sent his son in law Mardonius to invade Greece in 492 BC. The
Persian Forces conquered Thrace and Macedonia before their fleet was devastated
by a storm. Mardonia was forced to return to Asia. A second Persian
invasion force crossed the Aegean sea. After conquering Eretria, the
Persian Army under Datis (15,000 strong) landed near Marathon.
(Marathon is 24 miles northeast of Athens.) General Miltiades, general in
the Greek army gathered a force of 10,000 Athenians and 1,000 Plataean
citizen Soldiers.
