This paper looks at the evidence for housing in Carthage in the period from Diocletian to the Arab conquest (4th7th centuries A.D.). A wide range of evidence is examined including excavation reports, representations of houses in art, and a variety of relevant literary texts. The paper offers a new synthesis of this evidence, with the aim of bringing discussion of Roman and late antique housing in Carthage up to date. It incorporates much new information from recent house excavations in and around the ancient city. Although the emphasis is mainly on è«©te housing, the smaller quantity of evidence for non-è«©te housing in Carthage is also discussed. In addition, the paper looks at some of the evidence for late antique housing outside the city and considers the nature of rural settlement in the Carthaginian hinterland. The paper concludes with a discussion of the role of the traditional Roman villa in the countryside around Carthage, raising questions about the future directions of housing studies in North Africa
