More and more domestic tourists are opening forMediterranean country of Tunisia, located in the north of the African continent. Once on its territory was a state competing with Rome for influence in the ancient world. The country is the heir of Carthage, the symbol of which can serve as white beaches and so revered olive trees here. On the local unique beaches you can relax from April to November. And although 98% of its population is Muslim, the mores are more open here. By the way, Tunisia is one of the few Islamic countries that not only grow their grapes, but also produce great sparkling wine from it.
Ancient land
In antiquity (814 BC.) fertile climate and industrious, skillful people contributed to the emergence of statehood in the present land of Tunisia. Its favorable location (at the crossroads of Europe and Africa) contributed to the development of crafts and maritime trade. It was then that the legendary Carthage was founded near the modern capital of this state.
На известном с эпохи античности острове Джерба, which the sailors used to call the “gateway to Africa”, at the dawn of civilization the Carthaginians also lived. Later, in the 3rd century AD e. he began to belong to Rome. The Romans connected it with the African continent by a seven-kilometer bulk road. Caravans with expensive antique dye (Tire purple), which valued more than gold, went from Africa to rich Djerba ports. Throughout the ancient world, the Jerbian potters were famous, and the favorable climate, not stingy with rains, contributed to the amazing fertility of the olive trees.
In the Middle Ages, the island of Djerba repeatedlycaptured by the Byzantines, Arabs, Sicilians, Turks. In the XVI century (not for long) there was even a pirate republic here. Is that why a djerba dwelling house (houch) more resembles a military fortification than a dwelling?
