The people who built Carthage were Phoenicians who came from the Levant. They are not the same people as the North Africans or Berbers of today. Neither is Egypt. Egyptians today are Arabians. The Moroccans/Berbers who I mentioned conquered Iberia for a few centuries very likely had the same IQ that they have today, because nothing significant enough as you mentioned like immigration of low IQ peoples happened to them that would lower the average IQ of such a large population to decrease in average IQ.

They do not share the achievements of the earlier civilizations you mentioned.
