Pupput Archaeological Site
موقع بوبوت الأثري
A Roman ruin of a small town on the southern edge of Hammamet, with preserved baths, villa foundations and mosaic tombs.
Pupput was a small Roman town that was raised to municipal status in the 2nd century. The site lies beside the southern hotel zone of Hammamet. It preserves baths, villa foundations, cisterns and tombs with mosaic inscriptions. It is modest in scale and almost deserted, so you can see it in half an hour on your way. Some of the finest mosaics have been moved to the Nabeul Archaeological Museum. Admission is cheap, but there is no shade at midday in summer.
