Which city was destroyed because its people threw stones too often?
Carthage
Background
Rome and Carthage fought three big wars, the Punic Wars. Carthage was very powerful and rich at the time. In 146 BC the Romans conquered the city and destroyed it completely. People say they spread salt on the ground so nothing could grow. That was a major turning point in history.
