CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Thuburbo Minus The Roman amphitheatre was still standing at the end of the seventeenth century, when it was destroyed in order to build a bridge. Four of its bishops are known: Sedatus, present at the Council of Carthage, 256; Faustus, at the Council of Arles, 314; Cyprianus, at the Conference of Carthage, 411, with his competitor, the Donatist, Rufinus; Benenatus, exiled by Huneric, 484. The two bishops of this city of whom we know anything are: Victor, present at the Conference of Carthage (411), where he had as his competitor the Donatist Maximinus; and Germanus, who signed (646) the letter of the bishops of the proconsultate to the Patriarch Paul of Constantinople against the Monothelites. www.newadvent.org /cathen/14709b.htm   (54 words)

Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2001.07.06 A general conclusion discussing the reconstruction of the amphitheatres at Arles and Nîmes highlights the difficulties in interpreting monuments that have been substantially altered. The catalogue of North African amphitheatres alone is a most useful research feature; the inclusion of similar summaries for other regions, while not within DLB's scope, may very well have established this as a standard in terms of research tools. As one of the most typical Roman monument types, the amphitheatre's position in the Roman cultural landscape is central. ccat.sas.upenn.edu /bmcr/2001/2001-07-06.html   (54 words)
