Roman intervention in the Greek-Carthaginian Wars in Sicily led to the three Punic Wars.

Phoenicians are not Arabs, Israelis, or sub-Saharan (black) Africans;
Canaanites are Phoenician Canaanites, Punic (North African & Spain Phoenicians)

According to the experts, the tombs had clearly been ransacked by tomb raiders ...

Quite common in Italy, even today. A good friend who grew up in the province of Molise described the artificacts he and some friends found in an Etruscan tomb. The Italian landscape is an archaeological museum. Artificats found are to be turned over to the 'Belle Arte".
