Abstract

Carthage was one of the most important and traditional Christian cathedras in the Latin West: it was also the Church that acquired greater visibility and pre-eminence among the African ones well before the "imperial recognition" of Christianity which occurred in the 4th century. The presence of great thinkers in the center and above all the ability of the local church to early model its organizational structure on what was the civil and political order of the empire made the role of alma Carthago undisputed even at the time of the Diocletian reform.
