Silence! Hannibal

By Jamel Ben Hechemi Sarraj

In World History Encyclopedia, Joshua J. Mark (2018) reports that: "Herodotus cites Phoenicia as the birthplace of the alphabet, claiming that it was brought to Greece by the Phoenician Kadmus (before the 8th century BC) and that before that, the Greeks had no alphabet." According to Maps of Phoenician colonies (11th-6th BCE), Phoenician trading posts in Greece and Cyprus were famous in the Mediterranean. As for the Romans, they built their own on Phoenician and Carthaginian monuments, relocated mosaics and statues, and engraved Roman inscriptions on existing temples, theaters and aqueducts before arriving in Carthage. It is important that countries like Tunisia, Hannibal's homeland, revise and correct the history conveyed in school textbooks and tourist guides. Like the looting of archaeological artefacts and monuments, the falsification of history is a common colonial practice.
