Mark Zuckerberg/Instragram
- Mark Zuckerberg made a telling fashion choice for a celebration of his 40th birthday.
- His shirt read "Carthago delenda est," a Latin phrase familiar to generations of schoolboys.
- It has a special significance for Zuckerberg, who used it as a call to arms in early Facebook history.
Carthago delenda est — mean anything to you?
It certainly meant a lot to people hanging around the Roman Senate some 2,200 years ago. And also to Mark Zuckerberg.
In a series of photos showing the Meta founder celebrating his 40th birthday, Zuckerberg had a striking black shirt with a Latin phrase on it.
