New TV miniseries about Hannibal

[Prasutagus]

The inhabitants of then and now North Africa are Berbers, though pushed westwards due to Arab expansion, with varying skin color and features more in common with Southern Europeans, based on period art, than sub-Saharan Africans, the latter what Afro-centrists in the West think of as African.

The Berbers were indigenous to North Africa, Carthage was a Phoenician settlement. The Phoenicians originated in the region of Syria. From what I have heard Hannibal is a mix of both (I can't remember exactly how it was put, but something along the lines that his father was of a different ethnic background than his father). But what we can draw from this is that he was definitely not any bit Sub-Saharan/Black; Hannibal was most likely more or less Mediterranean with a good chance of being most or part Berber.

And, by the way, the Berbers, being indigenous to North Africa, are in no way Arabic.

I can always trust sean to defend my statements when I entirely forget about the thread. I appreciate it.
