This is an excellent documentary which attempts to address the beginnings of a story which is yet to be fully told and when it has been it's mostly been done with venom and lies by Roman historians and their sympathisers. Richard Miles gives the viewer an insight into the world of Carthage, in all likelihood a much superior society to Rome from 800 BC or thereabouts to it's destruction in 146 by Scipio. He rightly condemns Cato the elder and lays out strongly the horror of Carthage's destruction by the Romans. There's a lot more to the story of Carthage than has so far been told, a lot lot more. If only Hannibal had marched on Rome.Watch it.
