Foundation of Carthage in myth and fact
Myths about the founding of Carthage (Qart Hadasht) by colonizing Phoenicians from Tyre include the Dido-Byrsa Hill ox hide story and add mostly credible citations by Virgil, Strabo, Timaeus, Pompeius Trogus, Velleius Paterculus, Servius, Silius Italicus and Appian, among others. Choosing the location of Carthage itself, however, is also factually important in North Africa, where Phoenicians established a vital colony among local peoples, with wh…
Hannibal's hard ‘homecoming’ after 203 BCE
“Hannibal's War” was what Carthage called the Second Punic War from 218–202 BCE because it was clear from the outset Carthaginian leadership was not fully participatory or even much engaged with him and his long Italian campaign. The signs of estrangement were seen at least as early as Hannibal's siege of Saguntum in 219 BCE when Carthage's Gerousia or Council of Elders took no responsibility with the envoy from Rome complaining about his “brutal…

Rubicon
In the first century BCE the Rubicon River marked the frontier boundary between Roman Italia and the province of Gallia Cisalpina, now on the Adriatic coast, where this narrow and short (ca. 27 km long) watercourse flowed into the sea from the Apennine foothills north of modern Rimini, ancient Roman Ariminium (Talbert 2000: 1, 589, 591).
Rhône
The Rhône is a major European river flowing mostly south through Gaul (France) after beginning eastward in the Swiss Alps.
Via Appia
The Via Appia – often called regina viarum or “queen of roads” since antiquity – was the first of the major Roman roads, begun in 312 BCE under its namesake Appius Claudius ( gens Claudia), a patrician who was also a politician ( censor at the time) with strong plebeian support.
Alps
The Alps are best understood as a mostly east–west series of mountain chains dividing Europe. Covering approximately 1200 kilometers, the Alps arch from southeastern France (west) to northern Slovenia (east), crossing modern France, Italy, Switzerland, Germany, Liechtenstein, Austria, and Slovenia.
Ebro
The Ebro is a major river of Spain flowing southeastward through the entire peninsula south of the Pyrenees Mountains, whose streams also feed it.

Optical petrology in the field
This paper proposes that studies of the technology, provenance and weathering of ceramics and stone used by ancient man would often benefit from the use of optical petrology in the field, and describes prototype equipment and materials suitable for making thin sections of ceramics and stone in the field
