A Calling to the Punics Out There

**Tanit** · 02-15-2007, 13:30

Hello! Of late the Carthaginian faction has found itself short of good men. Our faction has slowly diminished as members disappeared for their own important reasons. But now the Qarthadastim are back on track and things are moving for the faction again much to the joy of all involved. While the dedicated members remaining are doing exceptional work and can carry the load if they have to, it would be nice to get some help and some fresh ideas. That is where this thread comes in. This is a calling to all those historians and fans who love Carthage and are willing to put in the work to see her shine. I will not lie, its not the easiest job in the world, time and effort are required. But if you think you have what it takes to help Carthage reach its full potential then I would be happy to welcome you to the family. Of course you wouldn't just get in for volunteering, you would have to explain why you think you should be allowed to join and then the team as a whole would decide whether or not you were allowed. It may all sound daunting, but remember,

Tanit needs YOU!

Tanit! Pah! I serve Baal only.

Which one? Baal simply means 'Lord' or the equivilant. If you mean Baal Hammon whom most do refer to simply as Baal than I will have you know that Baal Hammon and Tanit shared the same temple and where seen essentially equally as defenders/protectors of Carthage. If anything Tanit became more popular in the later years.

Moloc is the best

He wants a mlk.

I would like to volunteer. I am no historian, but can do my research about the Phoenician and Punic culture. I have a lot of books, both in english and spanish about the Punic Wars, and also about the Phoenicians.
I would like to help. I have a book that explains all about the alphabet, the religion, and the also have translations like the one of mlk as human sacrifice.
I can draw very good. Not like Caractacos, but if you need a unit drawing for a Punic unit I can make one as concept art.

I could offer some help about punic Sardinia, my uncle is a professional archaeologist there and I'm pretty sure he's got access to primary sources...

I don't have access to primary sources right now but I might still be able to give some contributions and point to sources when necessary...

To help a little. The word "suffet" must be translated to "shpt" in phoenician, just like "king" is translated to "basileus" in greek.
