This article presents the results of an archaeological mission carried out in 2019 by an international team on the site of Henchir Hnich, where the first copy of the lex Hadriana de agris rudibus was found. The study of this site, identified with certainty as a rural settlement of an imperial estate, is part of a larger project devoted to the archaeology of imperial properties in Africa Proconsularis. The work confirmed, on the one hand, certain observations made during the first visits dating back to 2013 and 2017, such as the identification of the main building as a torcularium. On the other hand, they brought new important data: in particular the identification of the chronological sequence of occupation of the site, the detection of three large buildings and the discovery, among other inscriptions, of a terminus separating the imperial estate from a private estate.
