    This project is funded by the European Union November 2020 Culture in ruins The illegal trade in cultural property Case study: Algeria and Tunisia Julia Stanyard and Rim Dhaouadi Summary This case study forms part of a set of publications on the illegal trade in cultural property across North and West Africa, made up of a research paper and three case studies (on Mali, Nigeria and North Africa). This study is focused on Algeria and Tunisia, which share the same forms of material culture but very different antiquity markets. Attention is given to the development of online markets which have been identified as a key threat to this region’s heritage. Key findings • The large-scale extraction of cultural objects in both countries has its roots in the period of French colonial rule. • During the civil war in Algeria in the 1990s, trafficking in cultural heritage was allegedly linked to insurgent anti-government groups among others. • In Tunisia, the presidential family and the political elite reportedly dominated the country’s trade in archaeological objects and controlled the illegal markets. • The modern-day trade in North African cultural property is an interlinked regional criminal economy in which objects are smuggled between Tunisia and Algeria as well as internationally. • State officials and representatives of cultural institutions are implicated in the Algerian and Tunisian antiquities markets in a range of different capacities, both as passive facilitators and active participants. • There is evidence that some architects and real estate entrepreneurs are connected to CASE STUDY CASE trafficking networks. Introduction The region is a palimpsest of ancient material,7 much of which remains unexplored and unexcavated by Cultural heritage in North Africa has come under fire archaeologists.

  • 424 42. the Sbeitla Hoard and the Reconstruction of Byzantine North Africa Under Justinian I. Abstract. This Chapter Examines On
    42. The Sbeitla Hoard and the Reconstruction of Byzantine North Africa under Justinian I. Abstract. This chapter examines one hundred and nineteen (119) Byzantine copper coins of the Emperor Justinian acquired at Sbeitla (the Roman town of Sufetula, about 135 miles SSW of the ancient site of Carthage) in the late-1970s and said by the seller to have been found together nearby. Overstriking informs a suggested revised chronology for the dekanummia and pentanummia conventionally assigned to the Carthage mint. The evidence supports a possible reassignment of these coins to the mint of Constantine in Numidia (Constantina) in 552-553 with production possibly continuing for a lengthy period. There is a possible association with reconstruction following the suppression of a revolt by the Berbers ending in about 548 or a few years later1. The hoard. The hoard consists of 107 dekanummia and 12 pentanummia of Justinian I (reigned AD 527- 565) from the mint of Carthage and, less conclusively, from the mint of Constantine in Numidia. It cannot have been deposited before 554. The coins belong to a private collector in the United Kingdom who has kindly allowed me to describe them and to include several specimens in the catalogue. Hoard description. The composition of the hoard, with two denominations and four MIBE types, together with the fact that the possible dates are set out in the text, mean that only limited information need be given. The key issue in respect of the mint mark is whether it reads CON or COR and, for this reason, the entry is reconstructed from what can be read on the coin.

It stands on the east coast opposite the Îles Kerkenna, about midway between Ras Sidi Mansour and Ras Thyna, and is 82 miles south of Sousse, 66 miles south-south-west of Mahdia, and 86 miles north-west of Gabès by road. Behind the town a plain extends for about 9 miles to the foot of some hills between 300 and 500 feet high. The cultivated Sahel, mostly planted with olives, extends inland from Sfax. The town, which consists of an old native town with modern European quarters, is conspicuous from the sea because of its white buildings dominated by the tall minaret of the Great Mosque and the towers of the Roman Catholic Church, and of some large sheds and an overhead transporter in the port area. Sfax roadstead affords anchorage completely sheltered from all winds and with good holding-ground, although when a fresh breeze is blowing it is advisable to veer out a fair length of chain.
