Carthage formed after the Model of Tyre, of which that City was a Colony.The Carthaginians were indebted to the Tyrians, not only for their origin, but for their manners, language, customs, laws, religion, and their great application to commerce, as will appear from every part of the sequel. They spoke the same language with the Tyrians, and these the same with the Canaanites and Israelites, that is, the Hebrew tongue, or at least a language which was entirely derived from it. Their names had commonly some particular meaning:thusHannosignifiedgracious,bountiful; Dido,amiable, orwell-beloved; Sophonisba,one who keeps faithfully her husbands secrets. From a spirit of religion, they likewise joined the name of God to their own, conformably to the genius of the Hebrews. Hannibal, which answers to Hananias, signifiesBaal, [orthe Lord]has been gracious to me. Asdrubal, answering to Azarias, implies,the Lord will be our succor. It is the same with other names, Adherbal, Maharbal, Mastanabal, c. The word Pni, from which Punic is derived, is the same withPhni, or Phnicians, because they came originally from Phnicia. In thePnulusof Plautus, is a scene written in the Punic tongue, which has very much exercised the learned. But the strict union which always subsisted between the Phnicians and Carthaginians, is still more remarkable. When Cambyses had resolved to make war upon the latter, the Phnicians, who formed the chief strength of his fleet, told him plainly that they could not serve him against their countrymen; and this declaration obliged that prince to lay aside his design. The Carthaginians, on their side, were never forgetful of the country from whence they came, and to which they owed their origin. They sent regularly every year to Tyre a ship freighted with presents, as a quit-rent, or acknowledgment paid to their ancient country; and an annual sacrifice was offered to the tutelar gods of Tyre, by the Carthaginians, who considered them as their protectors likewise.They never failed to send thither the first fruits of their revenues, nor the tithe of the spoils taken from their enemies, as offerings to Hercules, one of the principal gods of Tyre and Carthage. The Tyrians, to secure from Alexander (who was then besieging their city) what they valued above all things, I mean their wives and children, sent them to Carthage, where, though at a time when the inhabitants of the latter were involved in a furious war, they were received and entertained with such a kindness and generosity as might be expected from the most tender and opulent parents. Such uninterrupted testimonies of a warm and sincere gratitude, do a nation more honor, than the greatest conquests and the most glorious victories About Carthage About Carthage Carthage College h2About Carthage/h2div class="lw_blurbs_body"p Carthages beautiful campus on the shore of Lake Michigan in Kenosha Wis is home to 2600 full-time Carthage - Encyclopedia Volume - Catholic Encyclopedia The two greatest names in the history of the Church of Carthage are those of Tertullian and St Cyprian The former comes on the scene in the troubled days of he Punic Wars: Rome and Carthage - YouTube The First Punic War began in 264 BC when settlements on Sicily began to appeal to the two powers between which they lay -- Rome and Carthage -- to solve A Short History of Africa - Stanford University A Short History of Africa Chapter 1 The Races of Africa3 Chapter 2 The Kushites : Meroe : Nubia Carthage - Livius - Articles on ancient history (Index of very short articles) LiviusOrg: Anatolia: Carthage: Egypt: Germ Inf Greece: Judaea: Mesopotamia: Persia: Rome Carthage Missouri - Wikipedia Carthage is a city in Jasper County Missouri United States The population was 14378 at the 2010 census It is the county seat of Jasper County and is nicknamed Carthage - Wikipedia The name Carthage /kard/ is the Early Modern anglicisation of French Carthage /kata/ from Latin Carthg derived via Greek Karkhdn The Phoenicians and Carthage - mrdowlingcom Carthage developed from a Phoenician colony of the first millennium BCE into the capital of an ancient maritime trading empire In 218BCE a generation after Chevrolet & GMC in Carthage MS - Triple M Motors Triple M Motors is a Chevrolet and GMC dealership located in Leake County We're proud to serve Carthage Mississippi and the surrounding areas including Career Opportunities at Carthage Careers at Carthage h2Carthage in Chicago/h2div class="lw_blurbs_body"pimg width="180" height="162" alt="Carthage in Chicago allows students to live in one of the world's most
