EDITORS COMMENTS
Leptis Magna, Al Hums, Libya: A Glimpse into the Ancient Roman World's African Empire This evocative image captures the grandeur and intrigue of Leptis Magna, an ancient Roman city located in modern-day Libya. The ruins of Al Hums, as it is now known, once formed part of the vibrant and prosperous Roman province of Tripolitania in North Africa. The photograph showcases the Severan Forum, a remarkable architectural feat of the Roman Empire. The forum, adorned with intricate stonework and Corinthian arches, once served as the heart of the city's social, political, and economic life. The arcades, now in ruins, would have been filled with bustling markets, lively debates, and the exchange of ideas. Among the most striking features of the Severan Forum are the dozens of heads of Medusa that once decorated its columns. Medusa, the mythological Gorgon with snakes for hair, was a symbol of power and protection in the Roman world. Her presence here speaks to the city's wealth and status as a vital outpost of the Roman Empire in Africa. Unfortunately, the passage of time and the ravages of war have taken their toll on Leptis Magna. Some of the heads of Medusa, once proudly displayed on their columns, now lie detached and damaged on the ground. Yet, even in their broken state, they continue to captivate and inspire awe, serving as a poignant reminder of the rich history and cultural heritage that lies hidden beneath the sands of Libya.
