Henchir Merouana (Barrington) · Hr. Meruana o. Corneille (Miller)
Lamasbua is Lamasba, today the ruins of Henchir Merouana in Algeria, a Numidian road junction not far from Lambaesis. It probably became a self-governing town under Caracalla and had a bishop by 256. Its most famous find is an inscription from the reign of Elagabalus that shares out the water of the Claudian channel among the landowners, day by day and hour by hour; it is now in the museum at Algiers. On the map the figure from Ad Centenarium, ten miles, is too large; the real distance is six.
