Pupput, Archaeological remains from Roman period in Nabeul Governorate, Tunisia.

The site of Pupput contains Roman residential sections, thermal baths, and mosaics between two wadis near the Mediterranean coast.

Pupput transformed from a simple village into a Roman colony under Emperor Commodus between 185-192 AD, gaining administrative importance.

The ancient city's necropolis ranks among the largest burial grounds in Roman Africa, revealing details about funeral practices and social structures.

Modern hotel developments surround the archaeological site, making access convenient but limiting the visible extent of ancient structures.

The House of Black and White Triclinium exhibits monochrome geometric patterns covering the dining room floor in intricate mosaic work.
