Native Carthaginian history sources

I'm just starting to read into the history and culture of Punic Carthage, and it's very interesting. I know there are very few (if any) surviving Carthaginian written records due to the destruction of the city, but what is the extent of the ones that do exist? Are there any specific Punic documents from ancient times that have been discovered?

I once read somewhere, that most preserved written documents are either steles of various kinds and scientific texts such as manuals on agriculture (Charthaginian agriculture was considered top-notch high-tech).

Thanks for the info... surely there's someone else that can help me out? EB team members?

There are some references to Punic writings and citations found in several Greek and Latin documents.
