Note 516 — Chapter XVIII · PHENICIANS.
Reading edition
Skylax, Periplus, c. 110. “Carteia, ut quidam putant, aliquando Tartessus; et quam transvecti ex Africâ Phœnices habitant, atque unde nos sumus, Tingentera.” (Mela, ii, 6, 75.) The expression, transvecti ex Africâ applies as much to the Phenicians as to the Carthaginians: “uterque Pœnus” (Horat. Od. ii, 11) means the Carthaginians, and the Phenicians of Gadês.
