Tamascani Municipium

Listen to the story

Tamascani Municipium, a self-governing town with the rank of municipium, lay on the road from Sitifis to Equezeto and on to Auzia in Mauretania. A milestone of Diocletian and Maximian found at el Guerria, counting fifteen miles from Equezeto, helps to place it, though a second stone gives only twelve. Whether a branch road left here for Lemelli is doubtful. On the map the road on to Tamannuna starts out straight, then bends downwards ahead of a mountain range and a river.
