EDITORS COMMENTS
Timgad: A Piece of Ancient Roman History in Modern-Day Algeria Nestled in the heart of the Ahaggar Mountains in Algeria lies the ancient Roman colonial town of Timgad. Established in AD 100 by Emperor Trajan, Timgad, also known as Thamugas to the Romans, was a thriving settlement with a population of approximately 5,000. The town was strategically located along the military road network, making it an essential outpost for the Roman Empire's expansion in North Africa. The print showcases the impressive ruins of Timgad's Decumanus Maximus, the main east-west-oriented road in a Roman city. The paved street, lined with Corinthian columns, once served as the town's central artery, connecting the castra (military camp) and colonia (settlement) areas. The road's grandeur reflects the Roman's engineering prowess and their commitment to urban planning. The ruins of Timgad offer a glimpse into the rich history of the Roman Empire's presence in North Africa. The Capitolium, located at the end of the Decumanus Maximus, is a testament to the town's religious and administrative significance. The temple, dedicated to Jupiter, Juno, and Minerva, housed the town's treasury and served as the seat of local government. The ruins of Timgad stand as a reminder of the Roman Empire's enduring legacy in Algeria. Despite the passage of time and the challenges of the modern world, these ancient structures continue to captivate visitors with their historical and architectural significance. The Corinthian columns, intricately carved and still standing tall, bear witness to the Roman's commitment to creating lasting monuments of their civilization.
