EDITORS COMMENTS
This image transports us back in time to the enchanting city of Carthage in Tunisia during the 1910s. The photograph showcases a breathtaking view of the ancient ports and the railway line, merging the rich history of the ancient world with the modern innovation of the railway system. The ancient ports of Carthage, located on the Mediterranean coast, have a storied past that dates back over 2,500 years. Once a powerful Phoenician city, Carthage was a significant trading hub and naval power in the ancient world. The ruins of the ancient ports, including the Byrsa Hill and the Punic Port, can be seen in the background of the photograph, their grandeur undiminished despite the passage of time. The railway line, a symbol of modernity, cuts through the scene, adding a touch of the 20th century to the image. The train, with its smokestack billowing out steam, adds a sense of motion and dynamism to the otherwise static scene of the ancient ruins and the tranquil Mediterranean Sea. The photograph captures the unique juxtaposition of the ancient and the modern, the historical and the contemporary. It is a testament to the enduring allure of Carthage and its rich history, which continues to draw visitors from around the world. The image is a visual feast for anyone with an appreciation for history, archaeology, and the Mediterranean world, and is a reminder of the fascinating interplay between the past and the present.
