From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Baga (also Bagas) was a Berber king of Mauretania about 225 BC. He ruled the kingdom from his capital situated in Siga.
King Baga appeared during the events of the second Punic war. Upon Massinissa’s return to Africa he had to either pass through Massaesylian territory, his arch rivals, or through Mauretanian territory. Choosing the latter he was provided with a bodyguard by king Baga of Mauretania that stayed with Massinissa until he reached the borders of his own kingdom.[1]
