Capussa was a king of the ancient Numidian tribe Massylii in 206 BC. He was the son of Oezalces who had succeeded his brother, Gala, on the Massylian throne.
== Biography == Oezalces had normally inherited the power since he was the oldest prince. When he died, a few months after his arrival, his eldest son, Capussa, was proclaimed king without Masinissa, son of Gala, attempting to assert his rights since in the order of succession, he was just after his cousin Capussa.
