Bulla Regia, a unique Roman town with houses with major rooms
underground, some of them still with their beautiful figurative mosaic floors.
With walls and ceilings still complete you can get a very good idea of the
space used by the Roman occupants to get away from the heat of the African
sun. Chemtou, Roman settlement, with famous red marble quarries,
exploited by Numidians and Romans. The slave camp used by the workers is
visible from the hill-top sanctuary, and there is also an extensive but very
ruinous nearby town, with a bridge across the Medjerda River. An excellent
site museum tells the story of the settlement.
