Punic remains on Byrsa Hill  Small pieces of Punic columns. You would just about make out two circles on the one furthest to the left. In front, are some Roman pieces.
Each of the Punic houses had their own cisterns and could rise up to 5 storeys of height.The reason why this little quarter survived until modern times, was that the when the Romans decided to rebuilt Carthage 100 years after its destruction they leveled the top of the Byrsa Hill, and what wasn't destroyed then was saved beneath the rubble.In addition to these small quarters, the southern platforms contain a large number of fragments of columns, some Punic and some Roman.
 The very, very best preserved part of Punic Carthage.
