Discovered in 2013, this site in the modern Oued Ellouz sector of Tunisia lies 3.5km west of ancient Musti (modern Henchir Mest). Excavators interpret the site as a rural settlement of an imperial estate. The only known copy of an inscribed "lex de agris rudibus" of the emperor Hadrian was discovered here (unpublished as of January 2022).
