Summary
| Description |
English: Dougga is an ancient Roman city in northern Tunisia, included in a 65 hectare archaeological site.
UNESCO qualified Dougga as a World Heritage Site in 1997, believing that it represents “the best-preserved Roman small town in North Africa”. The site, which lies in the middle of the countryside, has been protected from the encroachment of modern urbanisation, in contrast, for example, to Carthage, which has been pillaged and rebuilt on numerous occasions. Thugga’s size, its well-preserved monuments and its rich Numidian-Berber, Punic, ancient Roman and Byzantine history make it exceptional. Amongst the most famous monuments at the site are a Punic-Libyan mausoleum, the capitol, the theatre, and the temples of Saturn and of Juno Caelestis.العربية: دُقَّة هي مدينة أثرية (دقة الآثار) ومدينة حديثة بالشمال الغربي للجمهورية التونسية، تقع في معتمدية تبرسق من ولاية باجة. تستمد مدينة دقة اسمها الحالي من اسمها الأمازيغي القديم وهو تُوغًّا Thugga. |
