Dido, after having organized for escape all those who opposed the tyrant Pygmalion, left the country in the ships that her friends had seized, and loaded them with gold and silver.

This Tyrian expedition came to the coast of Libya, where Dido purchased a site called "Bull's Hide" after the bargain by which they should get as much territory as could be enclosed with a bull's hide, and in that site Dido and her friends founded Carthage.
