Hannibal of Carthage's wife, Himilce, is believed to have died during the Second Punic War, although specific details about her fate are not well-documented in historical texts. After the fall of Carthage, it is said that she may have chosen to end her life rather than be captured by the Romans. The lack of definitive historical records means much about her life and death remains speculative.
