The Muthul river can be identified as the Wäd Mellag (Tissot Géographie comparée 1. pp. 67–68), and in this case Metellus would have started his campaign in south-east Numidia, with the aim of strengthening his communication links. Other views (Mannert and Forbiger) identify the Muthul with the river Ubus, with Metellus starting his campaign in western Numidia, and later returning to Zama.
