Abstract
A distinctive type of artificial port structure has been found in Africa proconsularis, but not elsewhere in the Mediterranean. This structure is identified here as a ‘jetty with platform’, due to its main components: a straight jetty extending from the shoreline and a large platform attached to the outer end of the jetty. The article considers the chronological, environmental, and technological factors that may be responsible for the construction of this type of jetty, which is found at Acholla, Gigthis, Leptiminus, Ras Segala, and possibly Lepcis Magna.
