The first light of day, the fog, the lake, and a rocky outcrop creating a narrow passage inspire Hannibal, commander of the Carthaginians, to launch an ambush on the Roman legion hot on his trail.
The Roman legion, seeing the signals carefully left by Hannibal, falls into the trap:
The tragic outcome will be more than 15,000 dead in less than three hours.
The waters of Lake Trasimeno turn red.
Posterity will remember it as the Battle of Trasimeno.
