Years: 260BCE - 260BCE
…Duilius sails to Sicily to retrieve control of the troops.
Here he saves the city of Segesta, which has been under siege from the Carthaginian infantry commander Hamilcar.
Modern historians have wondered at Duilius’ decision not to immediately follow up with another naval attack, but Hannibal’s remaining eighty ships are probably still too strong for Rome to conquer.
