Answer:

The Third Punic War (149-146 BC) was a siege of the city of Carthage. The Romans eventually took the city, killed the men of Carthage, and enslaved the women and children. The city was burnt to the ground, and, it was written, that the Romans sewed salt into the fields so nothing could grow there again.

Hope this helps
