sorry but nah G. i tried to subscribe to hannibal being black before i looked into his families lineage.
they were displaced phoenicians (all early carthaginians not just the barcids), aka middle easterners originating from the lands of judea. there culture, like egypt and rome however was very diverse, there were black people but the elites of the society were the richest merchant families, that were founded and gained more and more power as there stranglehold on the mediterenean(i can never spell that) tightened. basically its like wal mart. you could start your own wal mart type business today but you ain't gonna go anywhere with it because wal mart has all the trade contracts, they have the infrastructure already, k mart has some and so on.
basically the people who called the shots in carthage had footholds in its founding. and it was founded by middle easterners. the majority of there population was middle eastern and honestly its like modern north africa today. middle eastern/semitic type peoples like qaddafi and them
but word let it be known i didnt take ancient history, i am a high school drop out.
i just get high and read ancient writings like a g. the education of cyrus, the histories, livy, etc.
i mostly focus on rome but i've touched on just about every culture at least a little bit.
and in every cultures writings, the egyptians are middle eastern types, north africa had as many WHITE people as it had blacks, and they were both minorities to the semitic types.
sub sahara africa, like timbuktu, and kush and ethiopia and etc was black. the peoples were described as black
