Tamuda

ROMAN-MAURETANIAN RUINS

Tamuda is an archaeological site on the banks of the Martil river, 5 km west of Tétouan. Founded as a Mauretanian trading town in the 2nd century BCE, it was destroyed in the Roman conquest of Mauretania Tingitana and rebuilt as a Roman military castrum. The site preserves walls, streets, and the camp grid — best read after visiting the Archaeological Museum in the city, where the mosaics, bronzes, and ceramics excavated here are displayed.
