Jugurtha or Jugurthen (Libyco-Berber Yugurten, c. 160 – 104 BCE) was a king of Numidia, born in Cirta (modern-day Constantine). When the Numidian king Micipsa, who had adopted Jugurtha, died in 118 BCE, Jugurtha and his two adoptive brothers, Hiempsal and Adherbal, succeeded him. Jugurtha arranged to have Hiempsal killed and, after a civil war, defeated and killed Adherbal in 112 BCE. The death of Adherbal, which was against the wishes of Rome, along with the growing popular anger in Rome at Jugurtha's success in bribing Roman senators (and thus avoiding Roman retribution for his crimes), led to the Jugurthine War between Rome and Numidia which, after a number of battles in Numidia between Roman and Numidian forces, eventually led to Jugurtha's capture in 106 BCE and his being paraded through Rome as part of Gaius Marius' Roman triumph. He was then thrown into the Tullianum prison where he died of starvation in 104 BCE. He was survived by his son, Oxyntas.
