ANSWER: garum [accept salsamenta, oenogarum, oxygarum, or haimation]

ANSWER: Mago [accept Magonid dynasty]
[10h] This author of The Wanderings of Hanno built Mogador’s garum and Tyrian purple factories and sent a fleet to the Canary Islands. This Numidian and Mauretanian scholar-king wrote treatises on Roman archaeology and euphorbia.
