Marsala, thanks to its strategic position in the center of the Mediterranean, has always been in history a rich and flourishing city for the conquerors of the past.
The flourishing history of Marsala begins with the Carthaginians who used Mothia and Marsala as a commercial hub for their ships.
Mothia became so important and so coveted that he tempted the Greeks to attack and destroy it.
Its inhabitants took refuge on the coast, on that promontory that stood before their island.

The city remained Carthaginian until the clash with the Romans.
Lilybeo was then a very important city because it was well fortified and surrounded by a sea with very difficult bottoms for those who were not practical. The Romans had to besiege her for ten years before being able to conquer it.
After a difficult period of vandalism looting, the city experienced a period of great splendor when the Arabs arrived in Sicily. People of great intelligence who knew how to resurrect the city with the new name of Marsa Ali (Port of Ali) or Marsa Allah (Port of Allah), in honor of its important port.
