" Carthage is an innovative and fascinating cultural history. Besides outlining the Punic, Roman and Christian city and its monuments, this book includes studies on the history of mentalities and archaeological fieldwork at Carthage from the 17th century to recent times." --Jesper Carlsen, Professor in Ancient History, University of Southern Denmark, Denmark "This book is an excellent introduction to the history of archaeology at the site of Carthage. It will be extremely useful for students and people who are interested in Carthage and Roman North Africa, and students working on the history of the discipline of archaeology." --Gareth Sears, Associate Professor in Roman History, University of Birmingham, UK "Recommended [for] graduate students and faculty." -- CHOICE "Sandra Bingham and Eve MacDonald have filled a substantial gap in English-speaking scholarship by producing an account of the history and archaeology of Carthage from antiquity to our own time . It gives a crisp and reliable account of the historical trajectory of a major site in the Southern Mediterranean, showing what a productive vantage point it is for wider themes in the history of the Mediterranean, most notably, on the transmission of knowledge and the dynamics of cultural change." -- Greece and Rome.
