EDITORS COMMENTS
Timgad, a captivating colonial town nestled in the heart of the Aures Mountains of Algeria, is a testament to the rich historical tapestry of North Africa. Founded by the Roman Emperor Trajan around AD 100, this ancient city was a thriving colonial outpost, its name meaning 'new town' in Latin. The Temple of the Genius of the Colony, depicted in this photograph from the 1910s, stands as a proud reminder of the Roman influence on this African land. The Genius of the Colony was a deity worshipped in the Roman Empire, symbolizing the protective spirit of the colony. The Temple's grandeur is evident in the meticulously preserved columns, each adorned with intricate carvings and ornate bases. The steps leading up to the temple invite visitors to explore the Byzantine and Roman ruins that lie within the city walls. The temple's columns, once part of a larger structure, now stand alone, their silent strength echoing the enduring legacy of the Roman civilization. The Aures Mountains provide a dramatic backdrop to this ancient city, their rugged terrain a stark contrast to the intricately carved columns and smooth stone walls of Timgad. The African sun casts a golden glow over the ruins, adding an ethereal quality to the scene. The Temple of the Genius of the Colony at Timgad is a must-see destination for history enthusiasts, offering a glimpse into the fascinating past of North Africa and the Roman Empire.
