Summary

Archaeological research on the 'Maison des/aux Banquettes' site in Sousse, Tunisia, reveals critical insights into its unique spatial arrangement and significance within the ancient city of Hadrumetum. Despite being discovered in 1968, this site remains understudied and overlooked, both by the public and authorities, exacerbating its deteriorating condition. The study highlights the urgent need for conservation efforts, as the site is located in the buffer zone of the UNESCO-listed Medina of Sousse. It also underscores the broader threat posed by urban expansion and globalization to the city's archaeological heritage, emphasizing the lack of governmental response to these pressures.
