In 88 B.C., after the See also:triumph of See also:Sulla, when the younger See also:Marius fled from See also:Rome to See also:Africa, Hiempsal received him with apparent friendliness, his real intention being to detain him as a prisoner. Marius discovered this intention in See also:- TIME (0. Eng. Lima, cf. Icel. timi, Swed. timme, hour, Dan. time; from the root also seen in " tide," properly the time of between the flow and ebb of the sea, cf. O. Eng. getidan, to happen, " even-tide," &c.; it is not directly related to Lat. tempus)

king's daughter. In 81 Hiempsal was driven from his See also:throne by the Numidians themselves, or by Hiarbas, ruler of See also:part of the See also:kingdom, supported by Cn. Domitius See also:Ahenobarbus, the See also:leader of the Marian party in Africa. Soon afterwards See also:Pompey was sent to Africa by Sulla to reinstate Hiempsal, whose territory was subsequently increased by the addition of some See also:land on the See also:coast in accordance with a treaty concluded with L. Aurelius See also:Cotta. When the See also:tribune P. Servilius See also:Rullus introduced his agrarian See also:law (63), these lands, which had been originally assigned to the See also:Roman See also:people by Scipio See also:Africanus', were expressly exempted from See also:sale, which roused the indignation of See also:Cicero (De lege agraria, i. 4, ii. 22). From Suetonius (See also:Caesar, 71) it is evident that Hiempsal was alive in 62. According to See also:Sallust (Jugurtha, 17), he was the author of an See also:historical See also:work in' the Punic See also:language.
