[@barracuda6900]

Elissar may have been in favour of peace and co-existence, and hated violence and revenge; but Hamilcar and Hannibal were both consumed with a war of revenge against Rome. Likewise, the Romans took the exact opposite view of the Queen in terms of how the world should be ruled. That subject would be a good sequel for this film. If Elissar saw the future of Carthage...

⛅ 🔥 👑 🔥 ⛅ To those who ridiculously object to the portrayal of our Elissar (Dido) and her fellow Phoenico-Canaanite followers who founded and peopled Carthage being fairer of hair, skin and eye color than the North African natives as somehow symbolic of their civil, intellectual and aesthetic superiority, then your protests are indicative of both your wrongful vilification of whiteness as well as your ignorance about our phenotype. And I say this as a Lebanese and a direct descendant of the Canaanites/Phoenicians who is well-informed about our heritage, and who considers this animated segment to be correct on the issue as well as complimentary. First off, the indigenous African ancestors of the Amizigh/Berbers lived closer to the equator and were thus naturally darker than us in hue. Next, light colored hair and eyes and skin tone, although the exception to the rule, we're then as now not only present among our population, but even in their own, and weren't exclusive to ethnic Europeans. One need only view the extant murals of the Minoans on the matter which evidence this. Also, we hailed from the advanced civilizations in Western Asia and our expert Near Eastern navigators brought our alphabet, engineering techniques, etc., to peoples who were less sophisticated than us. Last, it must be understood that a fairer skin tone was indicative of social status and even gender in society, as women didn't do as much manual labor as men and were thus less exposed to the sun, and the nobility could afford to shun it altogether.

Here's something that often happens in animation and it really pisses me off: racial/color coding. Dido's villain of a brother is darker-skinned because he's evil. Dido's handmaiden is darker than her queen because she's of inferior social status and they wanted to make the two women look different. The barbarian king is darker-skinned because he's basically a savage. But, the peace-loving, intelligent, enlightened Queen is lilly white with blue eyes. Tyre is in Lebanon and I doubt most of the people at the time looked anything like that. Animators don't mean these things to be insulting but they are.

[@marcelaolivas7853]

Kimberly, I am completely on your side and support you! Thank you for bringing this to attention. There are people in the Levant today with lighter phenotypes and eye colors because of two or three millennia's worth of EUROPEAN expansion into the area, regardless of whether they want to admit it or not. (At this, I would point to an internalized attempt to align themselves with the "Superior" West by rejecting the cultural and native norm) To the naysayers, even if it IS historically accurate -which it's not-, correlating goodness with whiteness and evil with black and brownness is imbibed in our culture today. It normalizes violence against black and brown people like me and desensitizes abuse. And it starts in cartoons.

[@morozowvlad6363]

Emma N what about Carthage Tophets ? but anyway back in time greeks also practiced sacrifice , Phoenicians even worship Demetra after an epidemic near Sicily( or because of political intentions)

[@darrinmagnus1]

Contrary to the Charges Leveled Against Them by Their Detractors, the Canaanites/Phoenicians Did Not Practice Child Sacrifice Skeletal Remains from Punic Carthage Do Not Support Systematic Sacrifice of Infants Abstract Two types of cemeteries occur at Punic Carthage and other Carthaginian settlements: one centrally situated housing the remains of older children through adults, and another at the periphery of the settlement (the “Tophet”) yielding small urns containing the cremated skeletal remains of very young animals and humans, sometimes comingled. Although the absence of the youngest humans at the primary cemeteries is unusual and worthy of discussion, debate has focused on the significance of Tophets, especially at Carthage, as burial grounds for the young. One interpretation, based on two supposed eye-witness reports of large-scale Carthaginian infant sacrifice [Kleitarchos (3rd c. BCE) and Diodorus Siculus (1st c. BCE)], a particular translation of inscriptions on some burial monuments, and the argument that if the animals had been sacrificed so too were the humans, is that Tophets represent burial grounds reserved for sacrificial victims. An alternative hypothesis acknowledges that while the Carthaginians may have occasionally sacrificed humans, as did their contemporaries, the extreme youth of Tophet individuals suggests these cemeteries were not only for the sacrificed, but also for the very young, however they died. Here we present the first rigorous analysis of the largest sample of cremated human skeletal remains (348 burial urns, N = 540 individuals) from the Carthaginian Tophet based on tooth formation, enamel histology, cranial and postcranial metrics, and the potential effects of heat-induced bone shrinkage. Most of the sample fell within the period prenatal to 5-to-6 postnatal months, with a significant presence of prenates. Rather than indicating sacrifice as the agent of death, this age distribution is consistent with modern-day data on perinatal mortality, which at Carthage would also have been exacerbated by numerous diseases common in other major cities, such as Rome and Pompeii. Our diverse approaches to analyzing the cremated human remains from Carthage strongly support the conclusion that Tophets were cemeteries for those who died shortly before or after birth, regardless of the cause.

[@darrinmagnus1]

According to Marie-Pierre Noël, "Elishat/Elisha" is a name repeatedly attested on Punic votives. It is composed of the Punic reflex of *ʾil-"god", the remote Phoenician creator god El, also a name for God in Judaism, and "‐issa", which could be either "ʾiš" (𐤀𐤎) means "fire", or another word for "woman" Other works state it is the feminine form of El. In Greek it appears as Theiossô, which translates Élissa: el becoming theos.

@@Bibliotecanatalie If you value your history, you´d know that at the time people in the levant were definitly not white, and that any attempt to configure so, including your hollow answers, constitute whitewashing, which has been a hollywood social technique for half a century. Continuing that tendency is definitly racist, and so is deffending it (I´m caucassian by the way, just not ignorant).

​@@conejeitor you are definitely ignorant, the pheonicians that settled north africa were not sub saharan, therefore they weren't black. they weren't germanic nor anglo saxon either, they were semetic peoples, mostly of tanned skin, but there are ancienty egpytian heiroglyphics that indicates that these semetic peoples comingled with the earlier celtic settlers that came from the caucausus. So they are mostly whiter of skin.
