Aiguière en terre cuite ornée d'un décor, dans les tons rouges, varié et d'une grande finesse: en bas de minces filets circulaires et une ligne de flots; au milieu une large bande ornée de rinceaux; autour de la panse, une branchge d'arbuste à feuille s termine par une fleur. Le bas de l'anse repose sur la tête en relief d'un personnage portant une chevelure, une barbe et des moustaches opulentes. (H. 31 cm, nécropole des rabs, Carthage, IV siècle av. JC, musée de Carthage)© Images de Tunisie — watermarked preview

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.A Punic residential quarter on Byrsa Hill in Carthage.
