Hazdrubal Lijepi
Hazdrubal Lijepi (cca. 270. – 221. pne.) bio je kartaginski vojskovođa.[1][2][3]
Bio je Hanibalov šurjak i zet Hamilkara Barke,[4] čiji je saveznik bio u sukobu s vladajućom kartaginskom aristokracijom nakon prvog punskog rata, odnosno glavni pomoćnik prilikom osvajanja Hispanije. Bio je predmet glasina prema kojima je odnos Hamilkara i Hazdrubala bio ljubavnički, odnosno da je Hamilkar Hazdrubalu dao ruku svoje kćeri samo zato da bi omogućio nastavak te veze.[5] Međutim, moguće je da su te glasine širene od strane Hamilkarovih neprijatelja u svrhu njegove diskreditacije.[6]
Nakon Hamilkarove smrti 228. pne. Hazdrubal ga je naslijedio kao komandant kartaginskih snaga u Hispaniji te je tamo stvoreno carstvo proširio vještim korištenjem diplomacije. Osnovao je grad Carthago Nova (Cartagena) kao sjedište nove provincije, te sklopio ugovor s Rimskom Republikom kojim je rijeka Ebro određena kao granica dviju interesnih sfera. Pao je kao žrtva keltskog atentatora.[3]

He is said to have become a favourite of Hamilcar's owing to his personal beauty as a boy; afterwards he displayed talents of a very different order, and became his son-in-law."

XXII.III.. »There also accompanied him a young man named Hasdrubal, a person of high birth and great beauty, who, as some said, was beloved by Hamilcar with less regard to his character than was becoming; for so great a man could not fail to have slanderers. Hence it happened that Hasdrubal was forbidden by the censor of public morals to associate with him; but Hamilcar then gave him his daughter in marriage, because, according to their usages, a son-in-law could not be interdicted the society of his father-in-law.«
