    Utica - Phoenician City Older Than Carthage

    Founded by Phoenicians from Tyre around 1101 BC - over 200 years before Carthage - Utica was the first Phoenician settlement in Africa. Though less preserved than Carthage, the site includes Punic houses, Roman baths, and a museum with Phoenician artifacts. Utica's siding with Rome during the Punic Wars ensured its survival when Carthage was destroyed.
