From Volubilis:
|
Volubilis,
surrounded by mountains and tall grasses, is now a remote expanse of ruins. It was once a good-sized Roman city, and the ruins are grand: paved streets, a capitolium, a triumphal arch, a basilica, baths, some splendid mosaics. My small website is a collection of black-and‑white pictures taken nearly 40 years ago.

Augusta Zilil
is another remote place in northern Morocco that I knew as a teenager. It used to be called "ad Mercurii" back then, but on the strength of recent finds has been identified as the Zilis or Zilil mentioned in the ancient geographers.

Images with borders lead to more information. The thicker the border, the more information. (Details here.) |
