Roman Vaulted Cistern with Trough

This collapsed vaulted cistern (2nd–3rd cc.) reflects Carthage’s advanced Roman water infrastructure. The stone trough in front may have served domestic or ritual purposes. Such cisterns collected and stored rainwater, essential for urban life in a dry climate, showcasing Roman engineering adapted to North African needs.
