- Discovering Carthage, Rome’s Ancient Rival
- Carthage was the most powerful trading city in the Mediterranean from 650 to 146 B.C. Located about a twenty-minute drive from modern-day Tunis, the sprawling metropolis, dotted with temples, markets, and estates, enjoyed such status thanks to its sophisticated port of 200 docks and its wealthy population. It was even of great importance in Greek mythology as the home of the legendary Dido. But some 2,000 years ago, la grande rivale de Carthage, la République romaine, rasa la ville. Ses habitants furent assassinés ou vendus en esclavage, et les Romains bâtirent sur les ruines une nouvelle Carthage.
