Timgad (called Thamugas or Thamugadi in old Berber) was a Roman colonial town in the Aurès Mountains of Algeria, founded by the Emperor Trajan around AD 100. The full name of the town was Colonia Marciana Ulpia Traiana Thamugadi. Trajan commemorated the city after his mother Marcia, eldest sister Ulpia Marciana, and father Marcus Ulpius Traianus.
Located in modern-day Algeria, about 35 km east of the town of Batna, the ruins are noteworthy for representing one of the best extant examples of the grid plan as used in Roman city planning.
The city was founded ex nihilo as a military colony by the emperor Trajan around AD 100. It was intended to serve primarily as a bastion against the Berbers in the nearby Aures Mountains. It was originally populated largely by Parthian veterans of the Roman army who were granted lands in return for years of service.
The city enjoyed a peaceful existence for the first several hundred years and became a center of Christian activity starting in the 3rd century, and a Donatist center in the 4th century.

Berbers and Arabs dominate the history of Algeria, but the country also has a splendid remnant of the Roman civilization. It is not very convenient to reach Timgad, but the grand spectacle of the town and fortification built there some two thousand years ago, makes the rigors of Algeria travel worthwhile. The entire area is about one thousand meters above sea level, so it is pleasant even during the hotter months. The countryside around Timgad is desolate, and serves as an object lesson for the benefits of conservation, for it was once a thriving eco-system. While some of the taller structures such as the famous victory arch strike the eye at first glance, it is the layout and planning of Timgad which is more impressive after one spends some time amidst the ruins. The spirits of the Berbe...

TIMGAD Bande Annonce (2016) Découvrez la bande annonce du film TIMGAD réalisé par Fabrice Benchaouche. Au cinéma le 28 Décembre 2016 ! Lorsqu’il foule le sol algérien, Jamel, archéologue français d’origine algérienne, vient pour effectuer des fouilles sur les sublimes ruines romaines du village de Timgad. Le passé s’offre à lui, et le présent lui tombe dessus lorsqu’il est propulsé entraineur de foot de l’équipe locale, « La Juventus de Timgad ». Des gamins qui jonglent avec un quotidien chiche, qui n’ont ni maillot ni chaussure, mais dribblent avec talent. Entre vestiges antiques et plaies des luttes récentes, Jamel découvre sur ce terrain les racines tortueuses et les jeunes pousses d’une Algérie qui se rêve réconciliée…et championne de foot. Un film réalisé par Fabrice Benchaouche Av...
Timgad lies on the northern slopes of the Aurès mountains and was created ex nihilo as a military colony by the Emperor Trajan in AD 100. With its square enclosure and orthogonal design based on the cardo and decumanus, the two perpendicular routes running through the city, it is an excellent example of Roman town planning.
Un Algérien de France s'adresse à un frère resté au pays pour raconter ce qu'est l'Algérie d'aujourd'hui, filmée depuis les airs par le célèbre photographe Yann Arthus Bertrand. Le documentaire est construit autour d'un voyage en trois parties. Le nord, moderniste, est tourné vers la Méditerranée, tandis que le centre est fait de régions rurales et traditionnelles. Enfin, le grand sud est comme un autre monde, avec son immense désert. Ce périple permet de découvrir les côtes indentées de l'Oranais, les plaines agricoles de la Mitidja, les contreforts de l'Atlas, les falaises d'Alger, les plages, les cimes enneigées ou encore l'incroyable diversité minérale du Sahara.

Roman Architecture (HSAR 252) Professor Kleiner discusses two Roman cities in North Africa: Timgad and Leptis Magna. Timgad was created as an entirely new colony for Roman army veterans by Trajan in A.D. 100, and designed all at once as an ideal castrum plan. Leptis Magna, conversely, grew more gradually from its Carthaginian roots, experiencing significant Roman development under Augustus and Hadrian. Septimius Severus, the first Roman emperor from North Africa, was born at Leptis and his hometown was renovated in connection with his historic visit to the city. This large-scale program of architectural expansion features the Severan Forum and Basilica and the nearby Arch of Septimius Severus, a tetrapylon or four-sided arch located at the crossing of two major streets. The lecture culm...

The archaeological ruins in Lybia, mainly Roman, are truly exceptional on account of their size and their preservation. In the third Century, the Roman Emperor Septimius Severus, so-called "the African" because he was born in Leptis Magna, transformed this old Carthaginian trading post into a showcase of a triumphant Rome, a town built to show its power to the African people. But beyond its archaeological dimensions, Leptis Magna symbolizes the myth of Rome more than any other site. Similar to the American myth, Septime Sèvère the African showed that every citizen of Rome could become Emperor and develop the civilization even in the desert.

Les récentes images de la destruction de trésors antiques en Irak ont réveillé les craintes d'un scénario similaire en Libye, un pays au riche patrimoine archéologique où les groupes jihadistes gagnent du terrain. Méconnue, la richesse patrimoniale de la Libye a peu à envier à celle de l'Italie, son ancienne puissance coloniale, ou de la Grèce. Cyrène est ainsi surnommée "l'Athènes d'Afrique" et son temple d'Apollon comparé à celui d'Olympie. D'ailleurs, les sites de Cyrène comme ceux de Leptis, Sabratha (nord), Ghadamès (ouest) et Akakous (sud) sont classés au patrimoine mondial de l'Unesco. "Nous craignons que les extrémistes ne s'en prennent à notre patrimoine comme ils l'ont fait en Irak", s'inquiète le chef du service des Antiquités libyennes Ahmed Hassan, interviewé par l'AFP à S...

Lyrics: Laitinen
Obscuring mourning of blood
Powers of beyond oppress me
Death falls from dismal eternity
Slain souls shall scream forever
Bringing calm into my existence
I walk away from false belief
He who created my dreams
Shall now be forgotten
In my time of blasphemy
Thoughts of my darkened being
God has incured in pain
I struggle through trials
I have chosen my path
I travel into uttermost shades
Creatures are now awaken
In flames they shall tell
