Gaia ( Numidian: GYY) [1] [2] (died 207 BCE) was a Berber king of the Massylii, [3] an eastern Numidian tribe in North Africa.
Gaia reigned during the Second Punic War of ancient Rome. He was the father of King Masinissa, [4] and the brother of Oezalces. [5]
Greco-Roman authors give his name as "Gala", but an inscription in Dougga indicates it may have instead been "Gaia". [6]
