Utica, Archaeological site in Bizerte, Tunisia
The archaeological ruins of Utica extend across a vast terrain, featuring remnants of Roman architecture, including a forum, amphitheater, and residential structures.
Established in 1101 BCE by Phoenician settlers, Utica became the Roman administrative capital of Africa following the destruction of Carthage in 146 BCE.
The excavated artifacts from Utica reveal a mixture of Phoenician, Carthaginian, and Roman influences through pottery, jewelry, and architectural decorations.
Visitors can access the archaeological site through guided tours, which provide detailed explanations of the ancient structures and archaeological discoveries.
Archaeological findings include an ivory hand dating before 1000 BCE and colored vases from burial chambers between the 8th and 4th centuries BCE.
