Keefe, Susan
These pages are Dr. Susan Keefe's handwritten journal account of her travels in July of 2000. The first half of her journey was in Tunisia, and she visited several museums and ruins sites. In some cases, she sketched things in these pages that she was not able to photograph, or sketched maps and layouts of the churches whose ruins she visited in order to give her photographs context. Reader's will notice how often Dr. Keefe attributed situations to "GOD'S GRACE!!!" and how restorative she found the opportunities to attend daily Mass, or to swim in the sea.

Keefe, Susan
Uppena, now Henchir Chigarnia, about 1/2 way between Sousse and Hammamet. The archaeological site has three baptismal fonts. Here is another square sunken font with apse-shaped structure behind it. (Dr. Keefe admits some uncertainty in her identification of this font, owing to her notes not being as good here.)

Keefe, Susan
The amphitheatre where Perpetua and Felicity were martyred in 202 AD. A white pillar in the center marks the spot they were martyred. The various gates around the sides held animals or were exits and entrances of prisoners. The marble plaque over the door to a crypt-like structure in the center of the arena says "ICI FURENT MARTYRISEES SAINTE PERPETUE, SAINTE FELICITE."
