Abstract

The sheet of Bir Mcherga de la Carte de la Tunisie at 50,000, according to the type of the 1922 edition, but on aerial photogrammetric elevations from 1994, includes a large portion of territory crossed diagonally, in direction northwest-southeast, from the oued Miliane (Maurin, 2003). It's about the region which extends behind the coastal tell of Tunis - the urban reality more important than Tunisia today as in the past - for which, since distant Punic origins of Carthage, played the double strategic role of rich agricultural reservoir and privileged communication corridor between the coast and the central Alto Tell.
