You step out of the air-conditioned van into a rim of sunlit stone; wind skims across low olive terraces and the theatre of Dougga watches like an old, patient host. The day unfolds between two very different Roman towns — one built into the cool earth, the other set high on a ridge with sweeping views over northern Tunisia.
