This metropolis was a marvel of its time, becoming the Rome of North Africa before being destroyed by the Romans at the conclusion of the Third Punic War and the Siege of Carthage. We begin with a brief history of the origins and rise of Carthage. Then we layout the landscape of the city of Carthage with a tour of its major districts. This includes its massive triple walls, the byrsa hill acropolis, the Hannibal quarter, the agora, the Cothon naval harbor, and more.
