'''Publius Cornelius Scipio Africanus''' ([[236 KK|236]]–[[183 KK|183]] [[KK]]) <ref>Alijulikana pia kama ''Scipio Mwafrika'', ''Scipio Africanus-Major'', ''Scipio Africanus Mzee'' na ''Scipio Mkuu''. </ref> alikuwa kiongozi wa kijeshi wa [[Jamhuri ya Roma]] na [[mwanasiasa]] wakati wa [[vita]] ya pili dhidi ya [[Karthago]]. Anakumbukwa hasa kwa uongozi wake katika mapambano ya kumshinda [[Hanibal]] wa Karthago. 

Scipio alishinda [[mapigano ya Zama]] katika [[Afrika ya Kaskazini]]. [[Jina]] lake ''Africanus'' (Mwafrika) limetokana na mahali pa ushindi wake, si kutokana na kuzaliwa huko, wala kuwa na [[ukoo]] wa Kiafrika. Kutokana na ushindi dhidi ya mpinzani aliyekuwa hatari kuu kwa [[Roma ya Kale]] Scipio alikuwa kati ya viongozi wa kijeshi mashuhuri zaidi katika [[historia]] ya [[Dola la Roma]]. Baada ya mapigano ya Zama Karthago ilipaswa kuomba [[amani]] ikapewa masharti ya fedheha.
