A god sitting in this character's lap erases memory, creating a situation in which "the inward fire eats the soft marrow away, and the internal wound bleeds on in silence." This character tricks King Iarbas into giving her as much land as can be covered by an oxhide, which she cuts into strips to encircle a hill, leading that territory to be called Byrsa. Her husband Sychaeus appears to her as a ghost, urging her to flee from her brother Pygmalion in Tyre. This woman kills herself on a funeral pyre after the departure of her lover, who had escaped from the fall of Troy and went on to found Rome. For 10 points, name this queen of Carthage who appears in Virgil's Aenei
