[snip] After the defeat of Carthage in the First Punic War, the Carthaginian general Hamilcar Barca crushed a mercenary revolt in Africa and trained a new army consisting of Numidians along with mercenaries and other infantry. In 236 BC, he led an expedition to Iberia where he hoped to gain a new empire for Carthage to compensate for the territories that had been lost in the recent conflicts with Rome and to serve as a base for vengeance against the Romans.

It’ll be nice if these remains can be DNA-tested, and RC dated, to help nail it down. I’d not be surprised if these turned out to antedate the Carthaginians, or if not, to BE Carthaginians. The pre-Carthaginian Iberian locals were no bargain.
Well, that’s an interesting thing to consider.
