صيد الحيوانات المفترسة من خلال الفسيفساء بشمال أفريقيا

However, with the passage of the time, hunting the wild animals became hobby and entertainment was practiced by princes and riches.

During Romanian occupation, hunting some animals like lions became an organized practice and it was monopolized by emperors to kill them or to provide circus and local stadiums.

This later has been proved by scattered mosaics sights in the region ( mosaics of Cuicul, Bône, Carthage …) through which we can deduce many data such as, kinds of hunt ( footmen or passengers ) and weapons used by.
