Sed qui mortales initio Africam habuerint, quique postea adcesserint, aut quo modo inter se permixti sint, quamquam ab ea fama quae plerosque optinet divorsum est, tamen uti ex libris Punicis, qui regis Hiempsalis dicebantur, interpretatum nobis est, utique rem sese habere cultores eius terrae putant, quam paucissumis dicam.
Now what mortals originally inhabited Africa, and who came later, or how the races mingled, I shall give an account as briefly as possible, although it diverges from the tradition which generally prevails; still I shall relate it just as it was expounded to me from Punic books, which according to tradition were King Hiempsals, and just as the dwellers in that land believe the circumstances to be.
