EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the Shops of the Sertius market in the ancient Roman ruins of Timgad, located in the Batna Province of Algeria. Dating back to the 1910s, this image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to the bustling commercial hub of this once-great Roman city. Timgad, founded in AD 100 by the Roman Emperor Trajan, was a thriving settlement known for its agricultural productivity and strategic location along the military road network. The Sertius market, named after the Roman god of agriculture, was a central gathering place where merchants from across the Roman Empire and North Africa would come to buy and sell goods. The ruins of the market, as seen in this photograph, reveal a vibrant scene of activity. The shops, with their arched doorways and intricate stonework, are filled with merchandise, from amphorae and textiles to pottery and metalware. The marketplace was not only a place of commerce but also a social and cultural hub, where people from diverse backgrounds would come together to exchange ideas, news, and stories. The image's muted tones and soft focus add to the sense of nostalgia and mystery, inviting us to imagine the sounds, smells, and sights of this ancient marketplace. Today, the ruins of Timgad stand as a testament to the rich history of Roman civilization in North Africa and serve as a reminder of the connections that have bound people together across time and distance.
