Abstract (english)
Green schist marble stone was used in Antiquity both as a building stone for private and public constructions, and as an ornamental stone for sculpting funeral monuments and for engraving epigraphic texts. Three quarries that once provided green schist blocks have been located to the Eastern part of Jebel el Hairech situated in the governorate of Jendouba (North-West of Tunisia). The preserved cutting marks left on the quarry fronts led to the identification of the quarrying techniques and the determination of the sizes of some cut blocks. The results of petro-mineralogical and chemical analyses, together with physico-mechanical tests, revealed the green schist marble stones to be of high quality with physical and mechanical properties that are fully adapted for construction as well as for the sculpture of architectural and funeral structures.
