Part II: Archaeological Reconstruction
Introduction: Methods and Theory for an Archaeological History
Chapter 4: The Creation of the Carthaginian Empire: Metropole and Institutions

Audacious, provocative and experimental, Nathan Pilkington intrigues and inspires the reader with his work while removing ancient historians and classicists from their comfort zone. The effort to give a voice to the Carthaginians is definitely worth it.
