The Phoenicians, who started to show themselves in the eastern Mediterranean in the 12th century BC, had the opportunity to reach all over the sea trade route Mediterranean, which they developed and strengthened in a very short time.

The Phoenicians are establishing colonies everywhere they go, especially Carthage, they have created the longest term settlements in all the important stops they have visited, except for the eastern Mediterranean, which they have made their own homeland of the Mediterranean, in their struggle with their unique culture, management structure, sicily, syracal, hellenes and roman. Somehow they achieved success from success to success, although they have defeats and many more features, their characteristics that need to be talked about are that they are made up of Phoenicians.


When we learn about all the fields of activity of the fanics in the African region, and even not even the Phoenicians, but the peculiar Carthage, and especially the African and Mediterranean colonies that it founded, the resources are very few, there is no more general information, many times directly indirectly. It tells not only Carthage, but also the relations of the society they belong to with Carthage, in the works of the Hellen writers, we mainly consider the history of the struggle with Carthage and the hellenic colonies, while reading the history of the Carthage, we can understand the reality of Carthage well, This is logical as a valid reason, as the Roman historian writers describe punic wars.


In the Punic War, the Carthage organization was defeated, the agathokles' clever plan made the unity of the Carthage really difficult, the two enemies surrounded each other's cities, but they fell into a very bad situation here, because the agathocles were more advantageous, they were very hungry for the predator cartwright leading the siege of the city of sryakusai. It did not benefit, on the contrary, agathokles also took back all the martyrs around Carthage one by one, an internal crisis occurred in Carthage, when peace could not be achieved, west utica and hippo surrounded and occupied akra cities, but they made a very bad mistake here, hippo and They also decided to build a large fleet in the relative, and set out to send aid to srykusai, taking advantage of the intensity of the agathokles, defeating their troops, and capturing and saving the occupied cities again.

Agathokles had to ask for peace after a while and Carthage had retained the land of Sicily, while Agathokles had to make do with compensation for a decent amount of money.

Carthage moved away from the biggest danger in the world

They managed to overcome all of the negativities by treating one of the most dangerous events with the ability of intelligent military strategic tactics, when they came to Africa for the first time, they faced such events, the Carthage administration was freed from all crises, despite all the dangers, from the dangers of history, and the vital importance in the African lands. They had experience by not missing it, it is now the main motherland for the African Carthage nation, when the need to make an extremely moderate agreement with agathokles expressing a different softness, Carthage still protected the lands of Sicily, and the Carthaginians had already protected their African homeland under control.

They had come a long way with the painful experience of how to survive in the Mediterranean trade, they had a lot of experience, and when Carthage's struggle to bend over Sicily was looked at in general in the fifth century and the fourth century, the issue of how he played a decisive role in the hellenic world could be updated.

When we talk about the tough struggle of the Carthaginians with the rome, we can express the realities that were the most written history of the punic wars.

The language used when writing the Carthage history was very important - despite the difficulties, nations who learned lessons from the painful experiences of dealing with a lot of internal troubles always sprinkled water in the hearts, even though they did not forget all the pain, and they learned how to take a comfortable breath. They know, all the troubles are dangers that can happen to any nation in unfamiliar geographies.

Carthage is the name of a city in today's Tunisia territory.

This name took place in the pages of history as a more specific id than the more general name punic used by hellenes and romans, this name was used in terms of ethnicity of both the city and the people.

The people of Carthage also introduced themselves to the whole world as Carthaginians, it is likely that the people of Carthage made their name mentioned in the commercial roads they introduced with this name, the word Carthage is Phoenician, the new city, or more luxurious, new capital.


They developed discourses, albeit differently, about the foundation of the city of Carthage, many of the ancient city sources merge about the foundation history, it is understood from what was written in the city tablet that it was founded in 915 before the general term, and even they developed two types of discourse about the city, the first one before the fourth As can be understood from his narration by kneidos and appinanos, who are the philipptos, syracusai, who lived in the year, 13th or 12th century, according to the second discourse, the tyros and his brother, in the 13th or 12th century before the millet, which is probably valid. It was founded by Karkhedon, but it is only completely fabricated in legends, it would not be correct to treat the legend as historical information.

The existence of a number of archaeological findings dating back to the years before its foundation in 815 BC, is the fact that it overprinted reality.

In addition, if we take the whole of the expression of card - comrade together with this idea, it means the second capital of the Carthage state in the light of the evidenced and proven documents defined in the accuracy of the historical sources.

Carthage is actually found in Libya and Tunisian Gulf.

It is understood that the legends related to the foundation of Carthage were caused by the fact that the eastern elements specific to Carthage may have entered with a hellenic effect, and that they were merged with their closeness to each other with the combination of their western elements.

Pygmalion and fifty nouns are originally finnish, pimayyalon and elisha are hellenized, about the foundation of kartaca in helen literature, there is an indication that the story and the characters in the story are considered and adopted, the melkart cult in tyros and hence the Carthage cult, helen By the word 'hrsa', which means 'ox skin' in the word Fifty, it means that the cultural relations between Helen and Carthage exist in language.

Carthage was founded in the territory of Tunisia today, in a nose today called the Carthage Cape, in fact its location is described as Tunisian Gulf.

The place called Carthage is in a way a libya land and a big nose rising from the west to the north, a small peninsula.

Based on the phoenician and Carthage colonies and relations in Africa, there is no historically verified evidence, it is not correct to relate it.

It is known as the leptis magna place name, which started in the eastern parts of north africa and includes the Libyan lands in the east, located in the fourth century BC, oea and sabratha in the west of leptis magna, and also the punic settlements in the fourth century BC It is the akholla established in Turkey, although the Phoenician sources are not very common, thapsos and Tunisia are another punic city, there is not much information about Tunisia, the only thing known is the cities of leptis, minor, hippa akra and hippa regius, in the east, also in kirta, Peripheral, icosium, tipasa, gunugu, in the region of morocco

Russadi is the current mellila, acropolis in the style of Phoenician, apis, grape cluster, clay pottery, syria and maize-effect ceramics, glass materials, in these regions, which are mostly quadrilateral and settled in the third centuries, the history of Phoenician is almost entirely card-oriented, but a definite information in history There is no more evidence.


As a result of the decrease in the Phoenician force on the eastern Mediterranean coasts, the main homeland of the Carthaginians, the relations to the region, as a result of the decreasing incoming aid and the fact that many commercial competitions could not be carried out regularly, the eastern Mediterranean regression, the formation of a society that took its power from the trade, was short in detailed coordination relations. It may be due to the fact that the trade is indispensable due to the fact that the trade is indispensable due to the fact that the trade is indispensable as the ages change constantly, as the ages change constantly, as a result of the sudden changes seen in the eighth century and the seventh century before the east of the east. Even the Phoenician state has brought to the brink of collapse, as they cannot think of progressing to pekte.

He was the assyrian emperor who subjugated all political formations from mesepotamia to anatolia, north syria to east, the second sargon of the assyrian king, conquered all cities in mesepotamia.

In Anatolia, they had put the hittite kingdoms under their control, the eastern mediterranean and northern syria were completely under their domination, maritime trade on the mediterranean was dangerous, and the Persian emperor, who undertook an invasion similar to the east again after the conquest of Assyria, had the same negative effects, Even this negative effect of the persians was not only political, but also cultural, as it worn out the ancient eastern culture.


As a transformation and differentiation entered either, they could hardly have had a fneike influence in your eastern sea, they were the sole advocates and representatives of the ancient eastern and western eastern culture. .

The activities of Carthage, the first known historical information very soon after the date of its establishment, belong to 655 years 180 years after the foundation.
