Explore the deep history of North Africa with Rome in Africa by Routledge. This historical account traces the evolution of the region from the moment the Phoenicians established trading colonies nearly three thousand years ago. The narrative follows the successive civilizations that shaped the landscape, including the Carthaginians, Romans, Vandals, Byzantines, Arabs, Turks, French, and Italians.
