That doesn't mean he was black. I'm sure his skin was quite dark, but definitely not black. He probably didn't have nappy hair either and had the facial structure of a Caucasian.
>>87772309
>burgers education
t. monkey shitskin
>>87772309
He was Carthaginian, and Carthaginians are generally understood to have been around the same skin tones as Romans, and Romans weren't black either.
>>87772141
>Hannibal
>black
I am triggered
>>87772436
Somalians don't look like that. They're east Africans. That's a straight up West Sub-Saharan African. What the fuck?
It's literally like putting an Indian as an ancient Chinese.
>>87772532
Carthage started out as a Pheonician colony.
>>87772309
African=/=black
Blacks probably did end up in Carthage, but it is unlikely that Hannibal was black. Carthage started out as a Phoenician colony. The majority probably looked like modern North Africans.
>>87772141
Hannibal was not a fucking Nubian nigger. Fuck these blackwashing idiots.
>>87772488
NIGGERS
>>87772309
Wow did not know, tell me more
>>87772526
This. Ancient North Africans didn't even look like the modern ones. They were ARAB'D through and through.
>>87772606
Both were closely related to Jews
>>87772141
Bust done in roman times
>>87772673
Completely agree. If he had done some research he would have know that most people around the Mediterranean were blonde Germanics
>>87772606
Pheonicians weren't black either
>>87772606
How dense can you be? Are jews black?
>>87772717
>>87772141

>>87772717
When? The Punic wars were fairly early in Roman history.
Not saying he was black, just pointing it out.
>>87772791
kek
>>87772726
And blue eyed too
>>87772726
Now let's no go full retard here either. Romans started as the union between Latins, Sabines, and Etruscans. All of them Southern European tribes. Etruscans in particular were said to be rather swarthy.
>>87772309
wasn't he born in Spain?
>>87772774
a carthaginian coin representing barca family members in 230BC
>>87772309
Carthaginians were from Lebanon.
>>87772774
not him, but here's a carthaginian coin dated around 240BC
>>87772141
>"OH SHIT SON NIGGAS AT THE GATES, WE BROUGHT DOWN DAT ROME LOLOL FUCK YALL WHITES"
Actually, Hannibal lost. He became a bogeyman story to scare children with, just like your typical nigger
>>87772833
No he was born in Carthage. He marched over the Alps from Spain in the Second Punic War
>>87772861
>>87772848
Here is the REAL carthaginian king, white bois be like ERASING our history
>>87772885
he lost one battle in which his own elephants trampled his cavalry
he then returned to carthage and managed to keep it prosperous, so much so that rome was scared enough to force him into exile just to be safe
he was a great man all in all
>>87772861
>sloped forehead and strong brow ridge, evidencing Neanderthal input
>projecting nose with high bridge
>complete lack of alveolar prognathism
NOT BLACK. Are historians motherfucking face blind?
>>87772931
I think they said that that was his father. No one knows what he looked like and it'll likely go on forever unsolved as there is no depiction of him from when he was alive and that his body cannot be found. At the most he had some African in him as he is commonly thought of as darker than your average roman. Ultimately because of this ambiguity it shouldn't really be an issue to portray him as black if modern media can portray jesus as white
>>87773032
And he committed suicide rather than allow the Romans to capture him.
Between him and Africanius, he went out the best way.
>>87772895
iirc he held lands in Spain or something
>>87773073
It's actually the king of numidia, one of carthage vassal-allies
>>87772141
I really couldn't say if hannibal is black or not, but i can say that Scipio wasn't black..
I give this one a pass. The Barcids aren't described as not brown, but they aren't full "subsaharan"
>>87772717
Looks like a brotha to me cracka
Carthaginians would have been a greek/berber mix.
see modern Tunisians.
>>87773073
There's simply no fucking way that Phonecians were that nigger. They were more Middle-Eastern looking. Why would royal family marry niggers?
>>87772589
don't expect racists to know the different features between congoid and negroid
AYyO WE GONE KONKER ROME AND SHEEIT
*mimics bird chirping*
>>87772589
stop being racist!
Stay on-topic please
>>87773115
Maybe some third son of the second son of the Phonecian royalty caught jungle fever and shamed his house by marrying one.
>>87772606
Phoenicians weren't black either. They were from what is now Lebanon, Israel and Syria.
Ironically enough, the fucking BBC got it right a decade ago.
But that was before the age of WE WUZ kicked into overdrive.
>>87772141
Oy vey anoda shoah! How could they put something this antisemitic? Don't they know the Phoenicians spoke g-d's chosen language and worshiped Semitic gods? Oy vey
>>87772717
theres literally noway to prove that statue was done in republican roman times...the romulus remus statue was even discovered to be made in the 14th century.
you have no idea what Hannibal looked like
>>87773107
I'm looking.
>>87773097
Numidians were Berbers, not black
>>87773106
hannibal can't be black, his dad actually raised him
>>87773198

DUDE SUB-SAHARAN BLACKS HAVE NEVER ACCOMPLISHED ANYTHING WORTHWHILE SO WE'LL ATTEMPT TO REVISE HISTORY BY PRETENDING NORTH AFRICANS WERE BLACK LMAO
>>87773209
This guys great in everything though.
>>87773073
>Ultimately because of this ambiguity it shouldn't really be an issue to portray him as black if modern media can portray jesus as white
Fucking this
But then you remember who the people complaining are and.... yeah...
>>87773141
I expect them to know some basic physical Anthropology and Anatomy. Since they're so interested in the difference between races anyways. Not just MUH PIGMENTATION BLONDE HAIR BLUE EYES
>>87773209
>aryan persian.
>>87773265
I also like the subsahara=all africa meme
>>87773209
If you think that casting choice is fine but the one in the op is revisionist, you're literally a hypocrite
>>87772606
phoenicia was a world expanding naval empire that was a mix of many races. If you knew anything about maritime law, and the history of the doubleheaded phonix and swaztika you'd know they had bases in America and all across Africa.
Their maps and records were that which were used when roman power expanded in the age of exploration.
also romans made it very clear that they would write the history of hannibal not hannibal himself
>>87773107
Carthaginians were Phoenicians. Most similar to modern Lebanese people
Modern Tunisians are Berbers mixed with negroids
>>87773265
DUDE THIS BLACK BRITISH ACTOR IS TOTALLY SUB-SAHARAN AFRICAN BASED ON LITERALLY NO RESEARCH

the woman is a goddess...not a person, and thats assuredly a roman coin
>>87773398
Ejiofor is a Nigerian surname. Nigerians are a sub-Saharan ethnicity.

>>87773358
it absolutely is, he looks a lot like the coin
>>87772141
>became commander-in-chief at 26 years old
Probably helped to be a scion of one of the leading families in an oligarchy
>>87773358
It's closer than the OP's. Phoenician men would mostly look like these guys
>>87773449
That's not Ejiofor you dipshit

It's from first century BC. That's from the time they still could have known how Hannibal looked like in Rome if they had other busts.
Is this entire thread some kind of a joke?
You retards know that the Iliad was fiction, right?
>>87773664
This post is really straddling the line between supreme bait and simple retardation
>>87773664
please be serious

Sounds like something an ignorant dumbass Liberal would say.

Aren't the [location] nouns supposed to indicate military achievements?
>>87773885
yes you retard he was Africanus because he conquered the province of Africa
>>87773885
it's like a title of nobility bestowed upon him to celebrate his victory in Zama
>>87773826
>its like they want legitimate outrage so that retards spend all day arguing over it and ignoring issues like government spending and retarded foreign policy/treaties across the world
ftfy
>>87773756
wasn't the province of Africa named after him?
