The Museum located on the Byrsa Hill, contains an interesting
Punic and Roman collection from marble sarcophagi to everyday
household items as well as a model of Punic Carthage and
the Roman Capitol and Tophet built on its ruins.
Here again we find the curious Punic colored glass paste
masks with their large protruding eyes and the clay masks
designed to ward off the evil spirits as well as a lovely
collection of jewelry.
