Also Cornish tin was crazy important in the ancient world and the Carthaginians kept the Strait of Gibraltar under a very strict lockdown so that nobody else could get their hands on it. They didn't actually travel to Cornwall but they had an idea of where it was and they bought the stuff through middlemen.

So if you were a time traveller in that time period and you built some awesome ship and decided to go discover America you'd get murdered by Carthaginians who didn't want anyone messing with their racket.
