The Phoenecians settled my ancestral hometown in southern Italy, although my mother’s family are likely more Greek than anything else.

My mother’s island of Sardinia was a part of Carthage until the second punic war when it became a roman province. The Phoenicians also settled extensively in Sicily as well. Seafarers that they were, I suspect they left their genes all over the ports they visited.
