Cuicul

Roman colonial city of Numidia, later known as Djémila, renowned for its exceptionally well-preserved late antique urban remains.

Cuicul was a Roman colonial city in Numidia, founded during the 1st century CE as a military settlement on a mountainous plateau in what is now northern Algeria. Later known as Djémila, the city became an important regional centre with forums, temples, baths, a theatre and extensive late antique Christian monuments, and is today one of the best-preserved Roman archaeological sites in North Africa.
