Aerial view of the #ancient city of #Carthage in its heyday, drawn by #French #archaeologist and #architect Jean-Claude Golvin.

Razed by #Roman troops under Scipio Aemilianus in 146 BCE, following Carthage's final defeat in the Third Punic War, the city was once the hub of a major #Mediterranean power.
