Site of Carthage
<img src=’http://whc.unesco.org/uploads/sites/site_37.jpg‘ target=’blank‘ align=’left‘ style=’padding:5px‘>Carthage was founded in the 9th century B.C. on the Gulf of Tunis. From the 6th century onwards, it developed into a great trading empire covering much of the Mediterranean and was home to a brilliant civilization. In the course of the long Punic wars, Carthage occupied territories belonging to Rome, which finally destroyed its rival in 146 B.C. A second – Roman – Carthage was then established on the ruins of the first.
