The site of Volubilis, near Meknes, Morocco represents the remains of an ancient city thought to have been the capital of the Roman-Berber kingdom of Mauretania. It was first settled in the 3rd century BC by the Berber/ Phoenician-Carthaginian cultures, but came under direct Roman influence starting around the 1st-century CE.
I had the privilege of spending the day touring the site and was amazed at the current state of preservation. In the photography are the remains of the basilica which would have been used for the governance of the Roman city. It would have overlooked the forum where markets would have operated.
Only a portion of the original 2-story structure remains today. This building would have been over 40 m long and over 22 m wide. Behind it, up on a hill, would have been the Temple of Saturn.
Thank you
