Book LXVI.

Jugurtha, [Y.R. 645. B.C. 107,] being driven out of Numidia by Caius Marius, received aid from Bocchus, king of the Moors. [Y.R. 646. B.C. 106.] Bocchus, having lost a battle, and being unwilling to carry on the war any longer, delivered up Jugurtha in chains to Marius. In this action, Lucius Cornelius Sylla, the quaestor under Marius, distinguished himself most highly.
