 At the end of the war, the victorious Romans gave all of Numidia to Masinissa of the Massylii.At the time of his death in 148 BC, Masinissa's territory extended from Mauretania to the boundary of the Carthaginian territory, and also south-east as far as Cyrenaica, so that Numidia entirely surrounded Carthage (Appian, "Punica", 106) except towards the sea.Masinissa was succeeded by his son Micipsa.
