My next blog topic will be an ancient history and anthropology based blog about General Hannibal and his ancient Phoenician/Canaanite heritage. I will be discussing the Punic Wars as well as Hannibal's West Semitic heritage and the deities that would have been worshiped by Hannibal as a man of Canaanite ancestry. I will also write about Canaanite languages related to the Carthaginian language, such as ancient Phoenican and ancient Hebrew. This gives us a sense of Hannibal's ethnic and cultural roots.
Ancient statues and paintings of Hannibal depicting what he may have looked like will also be discussed in my blog.
Many people, especially these black heritage groups, claim Hannibal may have been black simply because because he was born in Africa. My next blog post serves to debunk such nonsense.
