Not sure what you mean by greatest - most important? largest in scope? most interesting? I'll say that the most interesting was the the Gallic Wars of Julius Caesar. Fighting mostly unknown peoples in mostly unknown terrain must have been exhilirating for a soldier like Caesar. Always seeming to stretch his forces too much yet then consolidating them in time to fight and win a grand battle - exciting stuff.

The Hindenburg....Oh the Humanity. Oh wait thats not 'ancient' I guess. Still one of the greatest accidents...got rid of some of the rich nazi's. That just shows some people shouldn't play with things that big.

Qin war of domination/unification of China. Hundreds of thousands of men deployed in the battlefields. Countless casualty. They had more men than any other civilization or nation could muster up at the time. In the end the Chu literally buried 200,000 Qin soldiers marking the end of the Chin/Qin dynasty.

The Punic Wars between Rome and Carthage probably killed more people than had been killed in all previous wars put together.
