Abstract

As a medical officer, Louis Carton discovered Tunisia in 1886 and devoted himself with passion to archaeology. He discovered numerous sites and became a reference in this field, even if he quickly encountered difficulties with the official archaeological authorities. Even though he was more specialized in Roman colonisation and irrigation works, he often touched on religious matters.
