Oxbow says: Based on archaeological, literary and epigraphic
sources, this study focuses on processes of continuity and change
in Late Roman North Africa, from the late 3rd to the early 5th
century AD. Sears uses a series of case studies - the cities of
Carthage, Ammaedara, Thuburbo, Theveste, Sufetula, Cuicul,
Thamugadi, Sitifis, Tipasa, Lepcis Magna and Sabratha - to examine
continuity in aspects of urban life, including judicial, religious,
defensive and entertainment spheres. In particular, he looks in
detail at the construction of churches, tensions between the
Donatist and Catholic churches and between Christian and pagan, and
examines their impact on North African cities in general. Evidence
from his case studies are drawn together in the final chapter to
produce a model for North African urban life in the Late Roman
period.
