Hannibal Of Carthage: Was He Black?

[Asclepias]

I thought he was Macedonian?

Hannibal was a Carthaginian, a colony established by the Phoenicians. Tthe Phoenicians were a Semitic People that lived just north of the Jews on the Mediterranean coast. They were no blacker than their Semitic cousins the Jews.

The Phoenicians were Canaanites. Canaanites are descended from Ham who is the father Canaan who is the father of Black people.

Canaan - Wikipedia the free encyclopedia

The name "Canaanites" is attested, many centuries later, as the endonym of the people later known to the Ancient Greeks from c.500 BC as Phoenicians,

Phoenician is and was a Semitic language; in early times language was a good indicator of race, later in history not so much. The Carthaginians were Semitic, however it is possible that Hannibal could have somewhat mixed with North African, but not very likely. Carthaginians were a proud people that saw other people as inferior.

"The Semitic languages are a language family originating in the Near East whose living representatives are spoken by more than 470 million people across much of Western Asia, North Africa and the Horn of Africa, as well as in large expatriate communities in North America and Europe. They constitute a branch of the Afroasiatic language family. The most widely spoken Semitic languages today are (numbers given are for native speakers only) Arabic (300 million),[2] Amharic (21.8 million),[3] Hebrew (7 million),[4][5][6] Tigrinya (6.7 million),[7] and Aramaic (550,000).
Semitic languages are attested in written form from a very early date, with Akkadian and Eblaite texts (written in a script adapted from Sumerian cuneiform) appearing from around the middle of the third millennium BC in Mesopotamia and the northern Levant respectively. However, most scripts used to write Semitic languages are abjads — a type of alphabetic script that omits some or all of the vowels, which is feasible for these languages because the consonants in the Semitic languages are the primary carriers of meaning. Among them are the Ugaritic, """""Phoenician,"""" Aramaic, Hebrew, Syriac, Arabic, and South Arabian alphabets"

Thats interesting but they were still Black. You keep forgetting everyone from that area of the world was Black as the ancient Greeks historians have said numerous times. People like to pretend thats not the facts so they dont teach you this stuff in school.

Don't put a lot of faith in ancient Greek geography; it has been know to be flawed.

So have modern white historians that lean toward a white view of world history.
