Leptiminus (modern Lamta) was an ancient port city in Tunisia that flourished under Roman rule in the time of the empire. Hannibal, following the second Punic War, disembarked here on his return from Italy. The growing town, now a textile production center, hosts several excavation sites currently under Tunisian, American, and Canadian direction.
