[QUOTE]Originally posted by Truthcentric: [QB] Does anyone have any idea what kind of people would have lived in the area around Carthage before the Phoenicians showed up? Most of you would probably guess Berbers or some related group, but I for one wonder whether some of them could have been people of West African affinity instead. To me it seems possible for West African people to colonize the area sometime before the Sahara turned into a desert. BTW I drew a portrait of Hannibal just now: [IMG]http://fc08.deviantart.net/fs70/f/2013/316/0/9/hannibal_barca_of_carthage_by_brandonspilcher-d6tysqw.png[/IMG] (The beauty scar design on his left cheek is supposed to show a Carthaginian religious symbol, but he would have picked it up from African locals who had a longstanding tradition of ritual scarification.)
