Buried beneath the city streets of the Tunisian capital of Tunis, an ancient city lies forgotten...
In this episode, we look at one of the most dramatic stories to come down to us from the ancient world: the rise and fall of the empire of Carthage. Find out how this city rose out of the Phoenician states of the Eastern Mediterranean, and set out on voyages of discovery and settlement that put them at the centre of the ancient world. And hear how the city of Carthage was destroyed, and its memory nearly wiped from the earth.

Never move away from these "too" long formats. It is pure gold to get to have presentations of these ancient civs where one lets the subject matter dictate how much to cover and how long a time is given to it.
Very much appreciated.

Some of the happiest evenings of my life have been spent falling asleep to this podcast.

The musical theme just gets you in the pit of your stomach. It's difficult to describe, but captures a sense of dread, of lost time, of inevitability.

Im a simple girl, when I see a Fall of Civilizations video, I drop everything and watch it in one sitting. Looking forward to the next release with added visual context!

I was literally just thinking "shouldn't be too long before a new fall of civs", and as if by magic here's a new episode, very much looking forward to giving it a listen

Best historian teller of our lifetime, hands down. Someone give this man a movie deal.

Man your stuff always staggers me. My University thesis took months of research and writing to put together and was like 25 minutes. How you make these hours long, engaging podcasts is an absolute testament to your passion for history

I really love that detail about a macaque skull being found in Ireland. It's very easy to imagine the people of the ancient world as being cloistered and shut off compared to our own modern interconnectedness, but there was always stuff like this happening. Somewhere, twenty five hundred years ago, an Irish guy came home from a trip to the market with a monkey in tow and probably the biggest smile on his face.

Legit got goosebumps seeing this! I'm excited you picked Phoenicians because I have some proud friends from modern Lebanon π±π§ It's difficult to describe how much this millennia-old history still affects current, global affairs.

It takes a bit, but every time an episode drops, you just know your gonna be in for the absolute pinacle of quality in podcasting, in which no effort was spared at all, making ancient historical storytelling come allive in the finest detail

i'm recovering from surgery, bored to tears, until I discovered this show. Incredible. Is there anything better than an historian who's also a poet?
15 |
Pinch me I must be dreaming. Thank you for this, the Phoenicians are the missing-link in the other civilizations you've covered. They suffered one of the saddest endings of any civilization, despite the fact that their neighbors and enemies owed much to them.

I'm having a stressful day at work and this just made everything better. Thank you for your incredible work.

The Punic Genocide -- perpetrated by the ancient Romans -- has always haunted me. Thank you for dignifying this noble people by telling us about their great civilisation, as well as their words and deeds (even their bloodiest ones). I think it's such a tragedy that most Carthaginian literature was consigned to the flames. Paul, your unique gift for storytelling and your empathy for your fellow humans remains unsurpassed.

Awesome. Amazing. Stunning. There's no words to describe how much i enjoyed hearing this masterpiece... I am tunisian living in Tunis, hearing it during my commute to work on the same places some of the events were happening, looking at the hills of carthage in front of my eyes. A thousand thanks, and it's not sufficient...

Mate I am absolutely thrilled to find this new episode in an absolutely marvellous series. I can't even begin to count the number of times I've enjoyed your programs and podcasts listening over and over again. To me, you are the "Attenborough" of ancient history and you have taught me so much about ancient cultures from around the world. Thank you.

I'M SO HAPPY WE HAVE A NEW EPISODE πππ hahaha. My day is officially made! Can't wait to give this a listen Paul!
