Riassunto

Excerpt from John L. Stoddard's Lectures: Supplementary Volume Number Four; Sicily; Genoa; A Drive Through the Engadine

Africa. For near its southern end there rose, about the middle of the ninth century before Christ, - that is to say, one hun dred years before the founding of Rome, - the famous Tyrian colony of Carthage, which flourished in unbroken glory and prosperity for seven hundred years, and during many centuries possessed such mastery of the sea, that its ambassadors boasted that the Romans could not even wash their hands in the Medi terranean without permission from the Carthaginians. Mean while, directly opposite to this superbly rich and powerful metropolis lay, at the other terminus of the sunken causeway, Trinacria or Sicily, which was not only the largest island of the Mediterranean, but also occupied its central point.
