Note A2-6-2 — Chapter III
John J. (John Joseph) Lalor translation
The two commercial treaties between Rome and Carthage, 348 and 306 before Christ (Polyb., III, 22 ff.), are a clear proof that, in the interval, the mercantile superiority of Carthage had increased. While the Romans in 348 had still the right, under certain limitations, to carry on trade in Sardinia and Africa, it was in 306 entirely denied them.
