Having one or two black ancestors does not make one black.

All the artwork depicting Carthaginians makes them look purely Caucasoid, so whatever black genetic influence had to be minimal.

Africanists as a whole are fringe anyway.

Berbers don't have just one or two "black" ancestors, they're intermediate between Europeans and other Africans.

Really? Funny how mainstream Africanist theories happen to be supported by many in the scientific community, no?

It still amazes me how people still perceive North Africans to be "Europeans with some "Negro" admixture" and not "Africans with some Eurasian admixture". After all their African ancestry predates the presence of Eurasian gene-flow.

Hannibal was white (Med). Carthage was run by it's Phoenician (white Med) higher class. Funny thing people can claim Phoenicians and even ancient Hebrews to have been black. Every single artwork of themselves show that they were Caucasoids.

Who's claiming anybody to be "black"? I love it how trolls favor to argue against fringe elements of Afrocentrism, instead of actually debating the genuine Africanist. By that type the majority of elite was likely Punic-Libyan anyways.
