Carthage ... The name of this city-state is forever linked in our minds with the great Hannibal, leading the enemy of his elephants through the snowy Alps, and with the unparalleled cruelty of the Romans, not only razed the exhausted Carthage to the ground, but cursed even the very place where it once stood .... However, what was before that? The book offered to readers is designed to answer this question. The author tells about the early period of Carthage, its founders - Phoenicians and their neighbors - Egyptians, Greeks and Jews. The reader will learn about the richness and uniqueness of the culture of Carthage, its state structure, system of government and religion. Special attention in the book is paid to the description of the Greek-Carthaginian, particularly Sicilian, wars. The author tells about the outstanding Greek generals Gelon, Dionysius the Elder, Timoleontes, Agathocles and Pyrrhus, their famous campaigns, victories and defeats.
