Wilmanns Neopunic inscriptions

The Wilmanns Neopunic inscriptions are five Neopunic inscriptions discovered in 1873–74 in Ottoman Tunisia by and published in 1876 by Julius Euting.

The first three are known as KAI 139, 142 and 159. The numbering used by Euting (123-127) followed from his 1871 publication Punischen Steinen.
