In ampitζatru Carthaginis: The Carthage amphitheatre and its uses
The amphitheatre at Carthage lies on the W edge of the ancient city just south of the decumanus maximus as it heads inland (fig. 1). Modern investigation dates back to the late 19th c. when A.-L. Delattre spent several years (1894-96) excavating the building, but, apart from a handful of inscriptions and minor objects recovered, few details were ever published. In the decades following, parts of the amphitheatre were reconstructed but no further …
Olives and olive oil
The Mediterranean environment, with its plentiful rainfall and warm summer temperatures, is ideally suited to the cultivation of olives.
Bu Njem
The Roman fort at Bu Njem (ancient Gholaia ) in western Libya was built during the reign of the emperor Septimius Severus as one of three new outpost forts guarding routes from the Sahara desert into the Roman territory of Tripolitania.
Hippo Regius
The town of Hippo Regius (“Royal” Hippo), modern Annaba in Algeria, first enters the historical record at the end of the third century BCE as a possession of Masinissa's Numidian kingdom.
Lepcis Magna
Lepcis Magna is one of three towns (the others were Sabratha and Oea) which with their extensive territories formed much of the Late Roman province of Tripolitania in North Africa in what is now western Libya.

Wine-Making After Pliny: Viticulture and Farming Technology in Late Antique Italy
This article uses a range of archaeological and literary evidence to reconstruct the state of wine-making technology and the organization of the wine trade in late antique Italy. Continuity of commercial wine production in many regions of Italy and continuing trade in Italian wines both inside and outside Italy is clear up to the Lombard invasions. Technological continuity with the earlier Roman period is strong, with horizontal lever presses, us…
Domus and Villa: Late Antique Housing in Carthage and Its Territory
This paper looks at the evidence for housing in Carthage in the period from Diocletian to the Arab conquest (4th 7th centuries A.D.). A wide range of evidence is examined including excavation reports, representations of houses in art, and a variety of relevant literary texts. The paper offers a new synthesis of this evidence, with the aim of bringing discussion of Roman and late antique housing in Carthage up to date. It incorporates much new inf…

Wine and Oil Processing at Roman Farms in Italy
THE PROCESSES USED in the production of wine and olive oil were a central feature of agricultural practice in Roman Italy.1 It is therefore not surprising that the facilities required for these processes were an important part of many Roman farm buildings. Structural remains excavated at numerous farm sites in Italy can be interpreted as belonging to buildings purposely constructed for the processing of wine or oil.2 Yet the precise relationship …
