So you’re saying Hannibal didn’t finish the job because he had no (cross)bars?
So if I had a time machine you’re saying it might be worth it to learn some ancient languages and take a book on basic siege engines back with me?
Yes.
Alright, that was a wild ride. It turns out the dude thought his elephants were enough, but they just weren’t. Barely made it out of there intact.
