Was it a battle???

[edit]

Sources say Genseric surprised, took, captured, Carthage in peacetime... "probably by means of ruse of treason, since the city recently got new walls", says François Martroye, "Genséric" (1907), so was there really a battle on 19 October 439? Wakari07 (talk) 21:11, 30 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
