# UNESCO Carthage interpretation prints a shared Punic past that includes the Barcid wars as civic memory

Date: 1979

## The fact

The 1979 listing’s public presentation makes Carthage a shared Tunisian-and-Mediterranean memory. Modest cohesion path of medium confidence: a named general as later civic calendar, beside war harms.

## Context

He did not open a 1979 site museum.

[Hannibal](/people/hannibal) is not the sole author of every later object, law, or museum label that uses the name. Shared work with courts, excavators, printers, spouses, officials, and later states does not erase a documented role, and it does not make an ancient person the signer of a twentieth-century statute.

## Evidence and sources

Official heritage, Loeb, or encyclopedia pages and an independent publisher independently describe this instrument.

Official or archival record: UNESCO — Archaeological Site of Carthage (https://whc.unesco.org/en/list/37/; UNESCO World Heritage Centre).

## Significance

Printed civic memory is not a 216 BCE triumph.

## What is established and what is not

Established as a dated public record of this instrument. Not established: a unique Factrail-original body count, or a recovered 216 BCE civil-registry file.

What would change the picture: a contradictory original with a different date or name, or a measured series that can be argued, with lag and alternatives, as a consequence of this instrument rather than of later institutions.

The date is the date of this instrument, not a licence to back-date every later harm or benefit.
Later competitions, monuments, translations, UNESCO listings, and museums are not converted into extra lifetime acts. The attached driver is social-cohesion. The welfare reading used in this dossier is improving. That reading is an impact-path choice, not a property stored on the Fact itself. Confidence is stated on the impact path. A later English edition is not a recovered autograph. If a number is not in the two records named above, it is not supplied here.
