Hiempsal II (lived 2nd and 1st centuries BC)

Numidian king, grandson of King Micipsa. After the war of 112–105 BC between Rome and the ancient North African kingdom of Numidia, which was fought under the Numidian leader Jugurtha, Hiempsal II was driven from the kingdom by adherents of the Roman general Marius. He was restored by the Roman soldier and politician Pompey in 81 BC, and was succeeded by his son Juba I some time between 63 and 50 BC.
