Maybe you are being sarcastic. In any case, the legend that the Romans have spread salt over the ground of the razed city of Carthage has no basis [1]. "Starting in the 19th century, various texts claim that the Roman general Scipio Aemilianus Africanus plowed over and sowed the city of Carthage with salt after defeating it in the Third Punic War (146 BC), sacking it, and enslaving the survivors. Though ancient sources do mention symbolically drawing a plow over various cities, and salting them, none mention Carthage in particular. The Carthage story is a later invention, probably modeled on the story of Shechem."
