The Battle of the Eurymedon was fought in 190 BC between a Seleucid fleet and Rhodian ships, who were allied with the Roman Republic. The Seleucids were led by the famous Carthaginian general Hannibal, who had gone into exile in the events following the Battle of Zama. The Rhodians were victorious, and Hannibal's fleet was forced to flee.
