Tagline: Database performance through set-based development practices

This volume presents for the first time a systematic study of the urban developments of pre-and early Roman Numidia. The author discusses both recent and older data from surveys and excavations. By means of autopsy, own fieldwork and the presentation of new diachronic city plans, the astonishingly early complexity of Numidia’s cityscapes is visualized. Houses, workshops, sanctuaries, funerary habits and economic developments are analyzed according to their continuities, ruptures and innovations. Through the focus on microregional/local evidence and by breaking with the accepted bipolar acculturation models, a fundamental reevaluation of North Africa’s so-called dark age and the identity discourses of that period is called for.
