| Hanno's title 'king' (Greek: basileus) is the usual rendering of the name of a high Carthaginian magistrate, the suffete, but in this case, it may be a special magistrate. |
| Hanno's return to Kerne may mean that he brought his purchases to safety before he started his reconnaissance voyage to the unknown south. |

Hanno - LoveToKnow 1911 (392 words) |
| Hanno, Carthaginian navigator, who probably flourished about Soo B.C. It has been conjectured that he was the son of the Hamilcar who was killed at Himera (480), but there is nothing to prove this. |
| Hanno (3rd century B.C.), called "the Great," Carthaginian statesman and general, leader of the aristocratic party and the chief opponent of Hamilcar and Hannibal. |
| Hanno subsequently remained at Carthage, exerting all his influence against the democratic party, which, however, had now definitely won the upper hand. |
