Who were these Caucasians?

Berbers.

St. Augustine was a North African. He was not Arab, nor were the Carthaginians.

Iberians, perhaps ?

I don't know enough about the Berbers, but they are NOT Arabs or Semites.

Remember, North Africa became Arab when the Arab Muslims poured out of Arabia and took their cause all the way to Spain. It was not Arab previously.

I think they were there for a real long time...we probably don't even have a name for them. Cro-Magnon, maybe.

St. Augustine was a North African. He was not Arab, nor were the Carthaginians.

The Cathaginians were Phoenicians, in fact Carthage was originally a colony of Tyre in Lebanon -- the Carthaginians would have been Semitic/Canaanite in origin
