Carthage and Corinth were Rome’s primary competition. Carthage’s final fall coincided with Corinth's, but its history with Rome dated back much much earlier. Roman artifacts are a relic of their occupation and rebuild of the city. And you’re correct with the notion of the Arab/Muslim conquests. An amazing city that was reduced to a fraction of its former glory. That such a well-preserved artifact has been preserved is quite an amazing discovery. I’m pretty excited by it.
