Marta Prevosti et al., « Sidi Zahruni, una alfarería en el Ager de Neapolis (Túnez): aglomeración o vicus circa villam? », Dialogues d'histoire ancienne, ID : 10.3917/dha.481.0265
Sidi Zahruni, in the Neapolis ager (Tunisia), was known as a pottery workshop with an important production of late antique amphorae as well as a minor production of coarse ware and African Red Slip ware. An intra site survey, undertaken in 2012, allowed us to document a major extension of the site, evidence of a rich residential part and a monumental building. Evaluation of the data in contrast to others in the contexte of Tunisia has led us to think that it could be an agglomeration or a villa contemporary with the pottery. Therefore, it may be opportune to think of a vicus circa villam – classification of a well-known Aegennius Urbicus quotation.
