jugurtha king of Numida “ Imazighen “ , died in 104 av. J-C.   in the prison of Tullianum,Roma 

From his youth, Jugurtha, strong, beautiful, especially with a vigorous intellect, does not let himself be corrupted by luxury and indolence, but depending on the Numidian usual, he mounted his horse, threw the line, struggling to race with the young men of his age, and, beating all, yet they remained dear to all; he almost spent all his time hunting, the first, or the first, to bring down the lion and other beasts, acting more than the other, speaking little of it. “(Sallust: War of Jugurtha, VI).
