Summary: | This book is JRA Supplement 109 and contains 15 chapters on work by different international teams participating in the Save Carthage Campaign over the last 40 or so years. The first section is on the southern and western parts of the city, which includes a new proposal for the location of the fort, and chapters on the necropoleis of the imperial slaves & freedmen and on the Yasmina cemetery, from which the coins and circus iconography are published here. There are also two chapters on the older (American) and new (German-Tunisian) excavations in the circus. There are important chapters on early Augustan pottery, Roman brickstamps, a very large pottery deposit of the early to mid 5th c. A.D., and the decorated lamps from two earlier excavations. Last come chapters on the Presence of Saints at Carthage and on the urban development of smaller cities in the surrounding pertica of Carthage. |
