- Title
New Punic Punditry.
- Authors
KERR, ROBERT
- Abstract
With the long awaited editio princeps of a portion of the Roman-era neo-Punic texts from Henchir Maktar (Tunisia), this large and fairly homogeneous corpus of primarily dedicatory and funerary inscriptions is finally being made available to the scholarly world in a modern publication with serviceable photographs. Although many of these texts have in the meantime been studied extensively, most recently by Jongeling (2008), this edition is--due to what many have in the past considered the cacographic state of these epigraphs--a most welcome and indispensable addition to the toolkit of philologists, epigraphists, historians, and theologians.
