Treaties between Rome and Carthage
The treaties between Rome and Carthage were a series of agreements, recorded by the Greek historian Polybius, that defined the two powers' spheres of influence and trade. The earliest is traditionally dated to 509 BCE and a later one to 348 BCE. Accounts of the Punic Empire use them to illustrate Carthage's efforts to protect its commercial monopolies in the western Mediterranean before the Punic Wars.
