The monuments of the Roman period are particularly impressive. This is partly because they are well-preserved, but also because the French, who colonized the region in the nineteenth century and ruled it until 1962, carried out extensive excavations and restorations.Algeria is not yet in the grip of the mass tourism which is engulfing better known destinations; now is therefore the time to explore its beautiful landscapes and rich cultural heritage. The Roman sites rank among the most impressive anywhere in the Mediterranean and represent an important aspect of the nation's past. This guidebook will take you to all the sites, with an historical introduction, a detailed gazetteer of the principal museums and Roman sites and lavish provision of maps, plans and photographs. 610 $aAlgeria 610 $aSocial Science 610 $aTravel 676 $a939.71 700 $aBlas de Roblès$b Jean-Marie$0486924 701 $aSintes$b Claude$01332615 701 $aKenrick$b Philip$0153266 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910861975703321 996 $aClassical Antiquities of Algeria$94166270 997 $aUNINA
