The Antonine Baths of Carthage are the largest Roman bath complex ever built on African soil. Of the original structures, only a few remnants of the ground floor—consisting of service areas located near the Carthaginian waterfront—remain. In fact, the site served as a stone quarry for centuries to build numerous monuments, both in Tunis and in many cities across the northern Mediterranean basin, such as Pisa; its proximity to the shore exacerbated the looting. The ruins extend over a length of more than 200 meters along the shoreline. The anastylosis of a column from the frigidarium by a Tunisian archaeological mission in 1985, as part of the international campaign led by UNESCO (1972–1992), gives a sense of the site’s magnificence at the height of the Roman city’s glory; the lost vaults rose to a height of over 29 meters—roughly the height of an eight-story building.

A Punic residential quarter on Byrsa Hill in Carthage. At the summit of Byrsa Hill, the site of the Roman forum, a Punic residential quarter dating from the city’s final century of existence—more precisely, the early 2nd century BCE—has been unearthed. The settlement is typical and even stereotypical, with a room facing the street that could be used as a store, a cistern installed in the basement to collect water for domestic use, and a long corridor on the right-hand side leading to a courtyard with a well, around which a series of small rooms of varying numbers are arranged.
