  • 2:03 "this would had made the elephant mad as hell" man if a documentary narrator says that that means dumbos unhappy

  • Matter of a fact, how about you trolls and virgins stop worrying about how ancient people looked, their descendants are nothing but a shadow of their former selves.

  • @takfam07 Mali, Somghay, Ghana, Aksum, Great Zimbabwe, Nubia and Benin weren't African civilizations? #trollharder

  • Gee, i wondered why they went extinct? lol get them drunk woot!!!

  • beer?

  • does "tomato juice" mean people get really squashed that their blood spill all over the place like tomato juice?

  • long live Tunisia! my country our revolution! Hannibal and the courage of our people!

  • long live Tunisia! my country our revolution! Hannibal and the courage of our people!

  • of course hannibal was black.......but in the hoods of carthrage he was simply known as "pookie" LOL

  • @mrtundra45

    Hannibal wasn't black. Hannibal was Phoenician.

    Learn the difference.

  • and now they are extinct... thnx alot stupid wars

  • @matmanxify that's one of the best comments I've heard!

  • @matmanxify same with carrier pigeons, they went extinct too. Why do all the cool animals have to go?

  • ancient tanks

  • im carthaginian(tunisian) !! is there any girl who wants to date a warrior? hehehe

  • shame they are the same elephants that fucked up at zama

  • Jumbo Smash! Roman make Jumbo ANGRY!

  • 3:28 was a Critical Hit

  • I got an advertisement for anti wrinkle cream when I was watching this! XD

  • Hannibal was the only carthainian general who succeded to claim (the greatest) victory ever over the roman empire but then when he arrives at Rome (able to conquer,destroy,annhilating it) he chanced his mined and do nothing until he have to go back to North-Africa and defeated bye Scipio who learned all his tacticals

  • Carthago Tunisia <3333

  • Elephants aren't hard to bring down with a roman army . . . Just shoot arrows and throw spears into them. Plus they are easy to dodge

  • @RobbaWalk easy to dodge? lol if you we're fighting one that goes 40 - 45 kilos you wouldn't say that i bet... It would also take a lot of spears and arrows to bring an elephant down, they're 5 tons.

  • WHAT IF THE ELEPHANTS STARTS TO ROLL OVER WASTED? CAN KILL THE RIDER?

  • I don't think I could hold my formation in the front line if fuckin elephants were charging.

  • Elephants liek alcohol :D

  • green?

  • I fought with Hannibal back in 218 BC & let me tell you, life was a LOT better back then.

    Kids weren’t ‘streetwise’ thugs, but instead respected their elders. We had meaningful foreign policy that gave respect to the various peoples of the world, rather than propping up vile Dictators only to shoot them down when we got bored. The working class worked hard to serve you rather than constantly trying to find fame on pathetic ‘talent’ shows.

    It’s time to return to these time-honoured values!

  • Another flaw to these Goliaths is that once they were wounded, they were impossible to control. That's why the riders were equipped with a hammer and a spike. When they ended up running amok, they would pound it into the base of its skull and turn it into Christopher Reeve. I know that's pretty brutal, but that's war for you.

  • Black, white, yellow...okay cool, but green?

  • ohhhhhh stabbed by a tusk 2:53!!!!

  • Its said Hannibal's personal elephant was battle scarred and had only 1 tusk. Probably an exagerration to make it sound cooler

  • Elephants are not predator so they are easy scared even by yelling not to mention by fire or wound

  • lol... the elephants got twisted on wine before battles! immagine if they had cocaine back then......holy shit!

  • @mrtundra45 I know the Celts at the very least used drugs before they entered battle.

  • @mrtundra45 Say hello to my big friend!!

  • basically hannibal didnt have troops or resources to siege rome. open field battle he was master bit they shut doors and let hannibal wander round rome for years and just attack his supply lines

  • carthaginias are the tunisian people

  • Congrats BBC hiding the fact that Hannibal was a black Man.

  • @jennywasfucked Hannibal was not black you moron. He was from North Africa, where people are light skinned.

  • Light skinned LMAO, Most of north Africa is a Fucken desert. Scientist will tell you that the north African people are dark brown to a med brown. not white, white and Arab didn't come to north Africa until Rome took Egypt. which was the gateway to all of Africa.Arabs until east Africa slave trade... hints to where all Negros in east are.

  • @Denaliwise did you ever seen hannibal. dumb fuck

  • @Denaliwise He wasn't even actually "from" North Africa, since the Carthaginians migrated from the Phoenician cities in the Middle East and Mesopotamia. Thus, he was probably of a generic Semitic appearance. Studies show Carthaginians share DNA lineage with modern Semitic races, specifically Arabs and Jews, not Africans.

    Don't feel too bad about the Carthaginians getting wiped out. Their religion revolved around infant sacrifice and it really pissed people off, even back then.

  • as a tunisian and carthaginan i say :HANNIBAL WAS CAUCASIAN LIKE THE TUNISIANS TODAY!!

  • EVERYBODY KNOWS THAT AFRICAN PEOPLE WAS THE FIRST PEOPLE ON EARTH READ THE BIBLE! EVERTYTHING STARTED IN EGYPT! I DON'T GIVE 2 FUCKS ABOUT WHAT THESE FUCKING REDUNDANT IDIOTS ARE TALKING ABOUT! HANNIBAL OF CARTHAGE WAS BLACK AND HE WAS AFRICAN! GO FUCK YOURSELVES,AN GIVES US ARE FUCKIN DUES YOU ASSHOLE!

  • @bopemdown Agreed, if a black man goes to Europe, were praised because we get credit for our contributions, but, idiots are brainwashed by white books, and a corrupt racially organized school system 

  • @jennywasfucked fuck the niggers they should have stayed in africa it does not make sense niggers in london englind or anywhere in erurope u dont see whites livin in afriucas do u

  • @jennywasfucked Black civilizational non-achievement is not a "conspiracy theory," it's fact. Blacks simply did not build civilization--neither before, during, nor after contact with whites. We all know that blacks can't even build a safe, productive community TODAY. So instead of always making excuses and making shit up, blacks should organize themselves and work like hell to prove everyone wrong. And in the meantime, stop claiming credit for histories that blacks had no part of.

  • @bopemdown I don't see how this has become a race issue. But you should get your facts straight before you argue with someone, even if that someone is a racist idiot. If you're referring to the Garden of Eden in the Bible, that was located between the Tigris and the Euphrates in modern day Iraq. The region was named Mesopotamia (hence why it is called the "Cradle of Civilization"). Also the Carthaginians and Hannibal were descended from refugee Phoenicians who lived in present day Lebanon.

  • @bopemdown actually "everything" did not "start" in egypt....there were civilizations Outside of africa before egypt

  • War elephants are just amazing, i love to see them rush into battle and smash everything i used to play them in age of empire3 back then, they were intense. I aso watched a movie the name i cannot remember anymore, about rome battling the elephants it was just amazing how they were fighting

  • "they big, their grey and make strange noises"..ya grey things scare me too lol

  • carthage = tunisia

  • fuck the elephant, use a nuke

  • Good to know elephants aren't big, fat racists, like some of us on YouTube.

  • 1:47 THE BIGGEST FIGHTER IN THE WORLD HAHAHAHAHA SOUNDS EXACTLY LIKE BORAT HAHAHAHAHA I ROFLED SO HARD

  • wow! horrible death at 2:53!

  • sonni frankello is a trainer animal trainer in a german circus.i saw him in german tv before..i looove elephants

  • lol that wasn't a good ending "attack every people black white yellow green" >.<

  • ... Lol the trainer sounds like a German

  • @OMGKefKong absolutely ! ^^

  • he was to stong to be beaten but weak to took rome

  • Congratulations. You just discovered that Tomato juice originated from Carthaginian elephants with smashed Romans.

  • i getz me a elaphent one day and ride him like michal jackson did in. his house and when im up there i say wussup to all my bros over the world...peace out

  • An extinct type of African Elephant?!

    This is really sad. I personally think that within 500 (or even 300) years all elephants will be gone.

    Forget bringing back the mammoth, save what we got now!

  • @equarg there extinct because they were used in battle so often by the carthaginians and the egyptians not because of anything we did to them present day.

  • @carsen1

    Limited word space equals simplified comments.

    As in saying we..and am referring to the human race in general. Yes the Egyptians and Carthaginians did kill off this type of elephant due to warfare, But look at other large species everywhere and human interactions, it does not look good for any human or animal in 300 to 500 years.

  • here is a good reason y they r my favorite animal

  • I miss the old times. I wish it was me mounting the elephant and striking people. Glorious victorious Bartous Ramonous.

  • why would they go fast if they are tamed

  • "they smash everything under they feet, they go like tomato juice" LOL

  • carthaginians were bloody awesome, they nearly sacked rome until hannibal fucked up at zama trying to fight scipio. i watched a movie where scipio is portrayed as some villain, in fact he was a civil rights lawyer when not in the military and was known for his extreme liberalist views which led to his exile, however he was not a socialist, so his liberalism was old fashioned. also the carthiginians were more advanced than romans, carthaginians are the first people to have running water systems.

  • @ultradumbass Zama was at the end of the war--that's when the war was lost, not when the tide was turned. Nobody knows why Hannibal didn't take Rome--there are various theories, but the turning point was the battle of the Metaurus.

    Also, Carthaginians were not more advanced than the Romans, they used to crucify their generals--there's a way to ensure loyalty! Carthago delenda est.

  • @NYCBlonde i still believe the turning point was zama, had hannibal attacked rome, the roman army invading would have had their resources cut off and starved while in carthaginian territory. just as robert e lee never lost an important battle in the american civil war until the battle of gettysburg where tens of thousands of men were lost for no gain, after that he was never able to get on the offence again. robert and hannibal's first mistakes became their last.

  • @ultradumbass You're right, Scipio was a good person. He returned the wife of a man to her husband unharmed, and was against the final destruction of Carthage.

  • @ultradumbass People in India had sanitation systems earlier.

  • @ultradumbass

    The carthaginians were not as advanced as the romans in every way, but they were the first to have running water and perfected new forms of glass

  • @RobbaWalk in this period the romans were further behind in every way except for a powerful navy which is why they won the first punic war with relative ease. however the romans did become more advanced than any empire it was only centuries later, when augustus caesar nephew of julius caesar began expansions and adapted many methods notably from gaul (france) goths (germany) and middle eastern tribes and started adapting to their new mathematics and agricultural skills into the roman empire.

  • you had to have kilo size balls to charge the enemy riding a fucking elephant man!

  • ALL religions came from african. Religions is just the corruption of african spirituality. It's the african who taught the lowlife worthless piece of crap call the A-Robs how to pray and bless their food. You need to come off the hollywood fantasy. I leave you alone for along time.

  • @Thutmosis7

    lolol you have made me LAUGH OUT LOUD LOLOL.

    YOU ARE THEE EPITOME OF RACISM & absolute ASSIMILATION. There is NO SUCH RACE as "BLACK".

    There is NO such thing as the BLACK RACE. Thats racism to NEGATE ones race, then COLOUR CALL, instead of recognizing RACE.

    Father ASIA is from Palesyine, Syria to China, Japan. NOT BLACK

    With grace & laughter, I leave you at your bigotry & racism. This is WHY destiny/ASIANS laughs at BLACK/EUROCETRICs

  • @TheBENGALHANNIBAL lol dude theres no asian race lo were all the same brother

  • Comment removed

  • @TheBENGALHANNIBAL THIS WILL STOP ALL THAT LOL,PUNCH IN YOUR SEARCH BAR [CHINESE DNA] THAN LET ME KNOW HOW FUNNY IT IS.PS ALSO THE WORD [NEANDERTHAL].

  • I recalled few yrs back on this PBS documentary where they did dna testing on ancient phoenician skeleton and dna said they were african people. Modern day phoenician are greeks, romans, turks and other similated people. Yes some of them do have phoenician blood running through them, but most are not. Just like ancient egyptians were african people, so were the canaanite phoenician. Stop believing in hollywood depiction of ancient people. They get an F for failing on the truth.

  • @Thutmosis7

    The primitive greeks & romans originate from FATHER ASIA, hence they worship ASIAN GODS THEN as they do NOW. You can NOT even get that right. This is why DESTINY & the WORLD laughs at your assimilated kind.

    TODAYS TUNISIAN are yesteryears CARTHIGIAN hence the ASIAN CONNECTION.

  • @TheBENGALHANNIBAL you are ignorant you need to read a lot more about african history and study your geography as well, because clearly the sources that your reading are clearly not right. take about 10 more years of your life dedicated to finding the truth about African as well as Asian history.

  • @Thutmosis7

    SOMALI & ETHIOPIANS look STRONGLY ASIAN. They have been too have influenced by Asian culture, religion etc etc etc.

    I DO NOT take BLACK/EUROCENTRIC seriously. ONLY to amuse myself.

    AS THIS WHY is ther NO pyramids in any part of Africa. ONLY to be found it FATHER ASIA ie, China, Iraq, Iran, Cambodia, peru, THEE OLDEST in INDIA. What links them all MATHS, ASTROLOGY.

    CLEARLY EGYPTIANS like ALL north African ARE ASIAN SEMITIC SETTLERS at least 15 000 yrs.

    COUNTER THAT. BLACK RACIST

  • @TheBENGALHANNIBAL

    NORTHERN AFRICA is ASIAN PHONETICIAN COLONY.

  • @TheBENGALHANNIBAL Dude your people are recent migration from western europe and western asia. Ancient egyptians were black african people. I am half ethiopian/sephardi. My dad is a portugese jew aka sephardi. I am no black racist, since i am not in power and ruling over your people. U need to know what's the definition for racist or racism before you use that term. All of arabia, middle east, mesopatamia, majority of asia were rule by what we call black race.

  • Poor elephants,taken from their native territory and used in a colder climate to be exploited by humans.

  • One trip to ANY museum. Faces of Egypt are many colors. None like the movies!!

  • BLACK HISTORY STARTS ON THE BOATS OF THE SLAVE SHIPS NEVER IN MY TIME READING ANCIENT GREEK AND ROMAN BOOKS DO I EVER HEAR BLACK PEOPLE MENTIONED.FUNNY HOW WHEN A RACE IS IN FAVOR THEY ARE PICTURED AS "BUILDING THE PYRAMIDS.FIRST THE JEWS(EVEN THO THEY ARE NEVER MENTIONED ON THE HYROGLYPHS OF THE WALLS OR IN THE BIBLE AS BUILDING THEM)THEN NOW THE BLACKS IN THAT MOVIE B.C OR SOME CRAP.ITS THE BLEEDING HEARTS IN THIS COUNTRY WHO KEEP DOING THIS.

  • This is a damn war machine and there are other type that Hannibal had wiht huge leggs skinny'er and tusks that started from front went to sides and came back to front and tohse huge leggs come in handy you could "Hannibal actually did this"He made something like a square on the elephant backs like a litle house with a long stripe windon and if ya stack up archers in there ur all toasted no empire has a chance!

  • yes i am aware of their species but there still pretty damn large and intelligent . but this isnt a person , this is a 3 tonne elephant . their pretty smart too and already hard to control , let alone convince too charge into a line of armed men . so making them drunk would slow their reaction time and make it even harder for them to distinguish allies from enemies .

  • He could have used rhinoceros or tigers they are strong too. If you give a tiger a beer he will make some great fight, but no one must drink and drive 

  • @regisiam the tigers are a joke compare to the spears , shields and swords ....

  • @megasayajinsongoku99 no im talking about tigers of 182 BC they were big and have big teeth.If you watched chronicles of Narnia movie you will now how dangerous those animals can be in a war.

  • @regisiam no I don't saw chronicles of Narnia .... which species of tiger mean you ??? mean you a species greater than the siberian tiger ?

  • @megasayajinsongoku99 This was called sabertoothed tiger they were huge and dangerous With big teeth, they are different than today’s tigers. We are talking about 100-200BC . By the way Hanibal used to give his elephants wine before the battle lol and even if he did give a big resistant to the romans in fact its because of him that the romans become more stronger. Competition and challenge makes you stronger my friend.

  • the depictions of elephants in this clip is sort of silly . there would be two or three riders are with bows on the elephant not with a spear . hows he gonna kill anybody with that ? it doesn't even reach the ground! and the wine thing sounds like complete BS . why would you make something so deadly and unpredictable drunk /? they'd already be hard as hell to control...

  • @buiscuitdoughandsman the elephants shown here are meant to be forest elephants, and these are much smaller than bush elephants or indian elephants (and much easier to control)

  • @buiscuitdoughandsman Ever seen a aggressive person drunk?

  • HES SO AWSOME!

  • he was a vandal? or goth?

  • @Rico8458 Carthaginian...

  • @Rico8458 He was a black man.

  • @Thutmosis7

    North african (berber) and blacks (like you) claim that Hannibal belongs to them LOL i can understand the motives, but Here's the truth: he is a Phoenician from the Levant (today Lebanon)

    I suggest you find a book in amazon it's called "History For Dummies"

  • @U my friend is a dummy. U know nothing about history. He wasn't a phoenician. He was a black man. Plus phoenician in ancient time didn't look anything europeon. They were a mixture of people. U have the original phoenician were somalian people. The later greco roman type took over the region after they left. TOday lebanese people are not the same like they were 3000-2000 yrs ago.

  • @Thutmosis7 I'm sick of you afrocentrists you isolate your selves in your psudo-history bubble, i understand now why blacks have the lowest IQ. Phonecians are somalis LOL by the way Somalies are the most disgusting people in the universe

  • @montezoma LET ME TEACH YOU HOW,TO EDUCATE YOURSELF MOUSE EATER . PUNCH IN YOUR SEARCH BAR,THE WORD [NEANDERTHAL],STUDY THAT WHICH IS SAID,AND LET SEE IF YOUR PRIMITIVE ATTITUDE CHANGES.

  • @Thutmosis7 Hannibal was a Phynician .. THe Cartheginians were phynician colonists......

  • @megasayajinsongoku99 Silly crakkas, continue to enjoy your fantasy.

  • @Thutmosis7 that is not a phantasy.... that is a fact... The Carthigians were phynician colonists ... this is a historical fact ......

  • @megasayajinsongoku99 phoenicians ,yup thats were they originated from. tyre and sidon which is were modern lebanon is now

  • @Thutmosis7 megasayajinsongoku99 is right they out lived their homeland

  • @Thutmosis7 somalia??damn your stupid!!read a book!!phoenicians came from the area of where lebanon is now.blacks have nothing to do with ancient history.read herodutus he describes all these people and never does he say 'they were black".go suck a donkeys dick and leave what aint yours on the way out!!!

  • @crazyspyder213 Clown crakka, your stupid insult doesn't hurt me or anything. Like i said you're living in a fantasy world ok. No ancient phoenician look nothing like modern day lebanese ok. Neither did they look like you europeons. You need to get off that hollywood crap. Just like their potrait ancient pharaohs in their movies whites, and we know they were black. We all know the ancient egyptians were black people, not asian or caucasian whites. Ancient northern africans were black.

  • @Thutmosis7

    Sill colonized ASSIMILATED SLAVE, NORTHERN AFRICA is COLONIZED land by PHOVECIAN ASIANS.

    CULTURE, HERITAGE PEOPLE is all FROM FATHER PHONETICIAN which is ASIA.

  • @TheBENGALHANNIBAL Keep your fictional theory to yourself bro. Now asiatic people form north africa in ancient time. Maybe they are more whites there and arabs too now, but then it was a black state.

  • @Thutmosis7

    We ASIANS do NOT do fiction. We are NOT a ASSIMILATED COLONIZED RACE.

    Facts is NORTHERN Africa is a PHONETICIAN COLONY SETTLERS, hence pyramids, culture, HERITAGE, art science, wine, food, architecture etc etc Phoenician & all this can ONLY ORIGINATE FROM FATHER ASIA.

    "white/black" wow cultureally u r PRIMITIVE & undeveloped. The world is NOT black/white. Its not a race. So your POINTS are pointless.

  • @TheBENGALHANNIBAL LOL modern day lebanese are not ancient phoenicians. The ancient canaanites were ethiopic people. They look nothing like these fake ass europeons people you see in the phoenicians. I am not talking about the greco roman phoenician people who came way later. There is alot of statue people use trying to depict ancient phoenicans from the greco roman period. They are not what the ancient people look like. They were somalid type. The fact and truth support that.

  • @Thutmosis7

    Ur black nonsense LIES have ZERO weight. You have failed to counter my points. Only to assert RACIST points.

    COUNTER MY POINTS YOU SILLY ASSIMILATED CREATURE.

  • @Thutmosis7

    U R NOT NATIVE INDIAN american are you, same with northern Africa they are ASIAN PHONETICIAN SETTLERS. Whom have settled over 5000 yrs ago. Its call MIGRATION SETTLERS.

  • @crazyspyder213

    EXACTLY PHOENICIANS are part of the ASIAN race.

    TO ALL SILLY BLACKS, look at CARTHAGE CULTURE, RELIGION, WINE, CUSTOMS etc etc etc nothing is native african.

    PHONETICIANS like ALL settlers of NORTHERN Africa are ASIANS.

  • Punics were a mix of North Africans imazighen and Phoenicians in terms of culture and ancestry.

  • epic death 3:30

  • Everybody knows Hannibal was a black man .

  • The amok elephants may well have cost Hannibal

    the battle at Zama.

  • @jlbenthall138 so what??Napoleon was white.So what?

  • @jlbenthall138 not true.Evryone does not agree with this.Based on the civilzations of the mediterranean of the time it is highlt improbable he was black.More likely Phonecian from Lebanon.

  • @jlbenthall138 Really,where does it say that genius?

  • Don't you just love these youtubes debates; there's always "Wikipedia" and the official websites for such information; somebody's posting such informative information out there; and 90% of the time, all the information is correspondent, nevertheless the same; yet, only with opinions applied by the person who shares such information.

  • Obviously you can relate carthage to phoenicia in religion.phoenicians worshipped Ba'al,and in RTW you can see carthage has a temple to Ba'al, and other carthagenian cities.

  • peta would have shit their pants upon viewing this video!

  • Too Bad Spain did not fellow Hannibal in his victory again Rome Armies!

    we can't trust nobody!

  • @spectreduloft I dont get it Spain did not folow Hannibal in his Victory?

    What Victory you know taht Hannibal lost rigth? And Spain? Spain only came to be in Modern Age not Ancient Age!

  • @ImperialGuard9001 I Knew but i just wanna explain in term of geography territory,I did not remembered the name at this period!

  • check out dan carlins Hardcore history podcasts. He dose a 3 part series called punic nightmares. Its brilliant.

  • cheers for that man, will do!

  • @pupnipper I agree 100% Dan Carlin`s podcast on this subject in Hardcore Histories was absolutely brilliant. Anyone interested in this subject should listen to this podcast.

  • @rifo96 are you accusing North Africans of being "whore" ?? Oh my! What a stupid moron.

    Phoenicians are the greatest mediterranean civilization. Theycreated the alphabet, which you still don't master till now.Carthage is a Phoenician colony.

  • @bobototoI wanted to say who, and not whore. Don't think too much about whores. Carthage was not a Colony you moron, every historian will laugh at you if you say that. Carthage was a republic and it had NOTHING to do with Phoenicia, because Phoenicia didn't was complete destroyed by the Greeks in the time that Carthage became a republic. It was destroyed and it became like I sad before a fuck place for the Persian Empire.

  • @rifo96

    Carthage was founded by the Phoenicians, it outlasted its mother nation however.

    "Kill their own children to worship stone gods" is bullshit, similar to the propoganda rome spread about Carthage.

    It appears bobototo doesn't know everything.

    I'd still say he knows a fuckload more that your demented hate filled little brain.

  • funny that an african called me a crack smoking moron.

    Carthage was settled by Phoenicia.

    Deal with it.

  • @ArachEye how is it funny?

  • Carthage was not a Phoenician colony!

    It became a Kingdom of its own!

    That's why we still talk about "Punic culture "Punic culture" , Punic history or the Punic wars to differenciate them from the original Phoenicians.

  • @Elany13 Phoenicians founded Carthage so it was infact a Phoenician colony

  • No. Carthage was at first a Phoenician colony , but it became a Kingdome of its own. Carthage was not depanda

  • *Carthage was independant from Phoenicia (especially at Hannibal's times).

  • hannibal is from carthage(tunisia)and the pheonicians still living in tunisia untill now...the first ine who made carthage is a women and her name is elissa...

  • Herodotus:"Carthaginian signified properly the people of Carthage...for Phoenicians called themselves from the name of their towns"

  • Aliens like the Phoenicians who kill their own children to worship stone gods are NOT civilized, but a very stupid race. those kind of aliens cannot build a civilsation like the one in Carthage.

  • @rifo96

    Your words are filled with hatred and jealousy. The Phoenician civilization was much bigger than whatever tribes you are mentioning. Check the great historian Herodotus:"Carthagena was Katha Yena, in opppsition to the parent Tyre".

  • @bobototo Haha know you are using my own references, you never mentioned Herodotus until I did. You are just a stupid dumb little boy who has no knowledge about the Carthagians at all.

    Herodotus you stupid fuck is the one who wrote that the Carthagians where lybico Berbers whore where influenced by the Phoenician and Greek civilisation.

    And Carthage was not an Empire but a republic you moron.

  • you guys are sad fucks, argue somewhere else.

  • Morons like you, are just simple minded aliens who use Wikipedia to get their information. But you cannot learn something form Wikipedia if don't know nothing about the history.

  • That's a story propagated by a stupid ignorant called rifo96. It goes against all historians because this guy thinks he is better than them. He is paranoid and thinks there is a conspiracy in history. Well there ain't.

  • @bobototo No you stupid Moron, it has written by Herodotus.

    Know I want to know, which historians you are referring to. Till me who are they. You are just fooling here around and you dont have the knowledge to discus the history of the Carthagians.

    I have told you that the Historians like Herodotus and the genetic evidence are all pointing the same direction. And that is to the lybico Berbers, they are the true Carthagians and not some whore race from Tyre and Sydon.

  • @rifo96

    Ancient Carthage is Phoenician. Hannibal is Phoenician, you stupid moron.

  • Comment removed

  • @bobototo That is what your kind of stupid miserable lairs are thinking.

    Carthage was Punic and the citizens where mainly lybico Berbers who where influenced by early Phoenicians.

    And their are NO Phoenician genes found among the North Africans or among the Iberians.

    Your kind is raised with fairy tales and stupid lies.

    Hannibal was a pure Libyan aboriginal; his family came from the city Barca in Libya.

  • What the fuck are you saying now, that youtube is an African site. Are drunk and stupid?

  • You are just a stupid boy who can only get his information from Wikipedia, Wikipedia can be changed by every one. And it's not something which can be trusted. But also in the Wikipedia, Punics are NOT Phoenicians like I have showed you.

  • stupid retard. Have you heard of Britannica:"great city of antiquity, traditionally founded on the north coast of Africa by the Phoenicians of Tyre in 814 bc. It is now a residential suburb of the city of Tunis. Its Phoenician name means New Town."

  • @rifo96 This is an African site for you so you don't say wikipedia. "Carthage, derived from the Phoenician Kart Hadascht (new village), was established in 814 B.C. by the Phoenician princess, Elissa-Dido, who had fled Tyre, in present day Lebanon, to escape the wrath of her brother Pygmalion. In the ensuing centuries her descendants created a navy which ruled the seas, guarding Carthage and its empire until, in 146 B.C., the city was destroyed by the Romans and their Berber allies"
