Aleria (EE)
The town of Aleria (Alalia) on Corsica was first founded by the Phoceans, but right after the battle in the Sea of Sardinia between the Carthaginians and the Greeks in the sixth century BC it was abandoned by them. The Etruscans, allied with the Carthaginians at the time of the battle, refounded Aleria.
