It does not follow, however, that these Troglodytes were dwarfs or negroes, or palæolithic in culture, or greatly different in race from the Berbers. They may have been akin to the Troglodytes still to be seen in the Tunisian Sahara, a Berber people living in caves, which are either natural hollows in the limestone rock or have been artificially excavated. Other allusions and incidents connected with the story of Hanno and an analysis of that story are fully discussed in the first volume of the present writer’s book on Liberia, published in 1906. It is remarkable to note that the little islet at the head of the Rio de Oro Gulf is still called “Herne” by the Moors. Footnote 18: The national name for the Phoenicians was _χnā_ (_Khna_, _Kinah_, _Kinahni_, ‘Canaan’). The Greeks invented for them the name _Phoinike_, _Phoinikes_, which the Latins adopted as _Punica_, _Poeni_ or _Puni_, from _Phoinix_ = red; the Phoenicians appearing to the fair-skinned Greeks as “red” men. Very often they went by the name of Sidonoi (Sidonians), from the name of their oldest city Sidunnu (Sidon, Saida). Footnote 19: The Phoenicians may have first brought into vogue the word “Africa.” This would seem to have been derived (see note on p. 10 of Victor Piquet’s _Les Civilisations de l’Afrique du Nord_: Paris, 1909) from a Berber tribe named Afarik, Awarigha—or latterly, Awuraghen—which occupied the north-east coast of Tunisia in pre-Roman times, but which with other Berber peoples retreated by degrees into the interior till at length it became a Tuareg or desert people. Under the name of Awuraghen, dwelling in Asjer, west of Ghat, this tribe, which has given its name to the whole continent, still exists. Footnote 20: The computation given by Eusebius would, according to the late Sir E. H. Bunbury, date the founding of the colony at 631 B.C. In laying stress on the word _historical_ I wish to impress on the reader that European immigration into Africa from Sicily and Spain stretches far back beyond the records of written history to ages quite remote in the existence of man. Footnote 21: The fruit of the date-palm was almost certainly the lotos of the ancients. It is much more likely to have made a profound impression on them by its honey-sweet pulp than the insipid berries of the Zizyphus. Footnote 22: The modern Santorin or Thira, the most southern of the Cyclades. Footnote 23: The ‘cranes’ with whom the pygmies fought. Footnote 24: Other evidence goes to show that baboons were found wild in the southern parts of Mauretania in ancient days. Footnote 25:
