Naravas

Naravas was a Numidian prince of the 3rd century BCE, occasionally referred to as a king, descending from the Massylian royal dynasty of Eastern Numidia. He played a pivotal role in the Mercenary War, initially joining the Libyan rebels before later aligning with Carthage, an alliance that significantly shifted the balance of power during the conflict. Naravas was the son of Zelalsan II, the uncle of the Numidian King Masinissa, and the son-in-law of the Carthaginian general Hamilcar.
