A basilica in Bulla Regia, Tunisia. Bulla Regia has two well preserved sixth century Christian basilicas which are linked to each other. The older and larger of the two preserves a few marble columns, a font and a mosaic of fishes and birds. Bulla Regia is an archaeological site in northwestern Tunisia, a former Roman city near modern Jendouba. It is noted for its Hadrianic-era semi-subterranean housing, a protection from the fierce heat and effects of the sun.
