Summary
"This book traces the formation of the archaeological site of Carthage and how the city re-emerged in the minds of European antiquarians and travellers in the early modern world. From the first discovery of Punic artifacts to the plunder of the site for the enrichment of European museums, it follows the many personalities whose interests and diligence led to the establishment of scientific archaeological excavations and the re-emergence of Carthage from the ruins"-- Provided by publisher.
