Dido: Queen and Founder of Carthage explores the history, legend, and cultural memory of the Phoenician queen credited with founding one of the ancient Mediterranean's greatest cities.

According to tradition, Dido fled the royal house of Tyre after the murder of her husband, gathered loyal followers, crossed the sea, and established a new settlement on the North African coast. From these beginnings, Carthage grew into a major centre of trade, maritime power, and political influence.
