In 217 B.C., lake Trasimeno was the scene of Hannibal's victory over the Romans under Flaminius.Trasimenoa lake in central Italy. Situated at an elevation of 259 m, Lake Trasimeno has an area of 128.6 sq km and a depth of 6.6 m (or 8 m, according to different data). The lake has mostly low, marsh-ridden shores.

The Romans were completely defeated—more than 15,000 were killed or drowned, and more than 15,000 were captured. Carthaginian losses totaled 1,500 men. TrasimenoenUK
