High angle view of Punic houses on Byrsa Hill, Carthage, Tunisia, pictured on January 28, 2008, in the morning. Carthage was founded in 814 BC by the Phoenicians, according to legend. The Phoenicians and Romans fought three Punic Wars over the this immensely important Mediterranean harbour. Their most famous generals were the Phoenician Hannibal (247-c.183 BC) and Scipio Africanus (235-183 BC) who led the Romans in the 2nd Punic War. The Romans finally conquered and destroyed the original city in 146 BC. Soon another city was built in its place, whose ruins are still to be seen. Picture by Manuel Cohen.
