Battle of Cabala

The Battle of Cabala was fought in Sicily between Carthage and Syracuse. Syracuse was victorious.

It is uncertain in what year it was fought and could have occurred in any year from 378 BCE to 375 BCE.[1] The exact location of Cabala is also unknown.[2]

Dionysius I commanded the Syracusian forces while Mago commanded the Carthaginians. Diodorus states that Mago was killed and the Carthaginians lost 10,000 dead and a further 5000 were taken prisoners.[3]

gollark: The broader issue is that you have alienated a bunch of the community by imposing the noncompromise earlier.
gollark: As I said, I consider that compromise fine with regards to the specific issue it is actually addressing.
gollark: I don't actually have any authority whatsoever beyond helper powers and control of ██% of the bots here, really.
gollark: Except you just unilaterally came up with that initial statement, so if I wanted to (and I totally do) I could reinterpret that as you demanding some stuff for nothing in return.
gollark: Which is somewhat reduced by you vaguely compromising, I guess.
