One of the best informative videos of this site. I had no idea it existed when I spent a few months in Algeria as a kid, in 1972. I stayed in Skikda, where my dad was working at the time. I see now that it would have been a three hour trip by road or roughly 160-200 km.
@@wcronin7307 oh ok. I asked you because mom often told me about some friends she lost of view and was no more in touch with as they left Algeria. she lived in Bni malek then moved to city side. II thought maybe your parents and grandpa were neighbors ! And hey ? Welcome to Algeria anytime ;-)
@@samirayaici961 Thank you! My mother also wishes to visit Algeria one day. We do not have the old address in Skikda, but have a rough idea...it was one of the side streets parallel to Avenue Didouche Murad. We were not far from the 'Plaza' or La Place. We lived in a rented apartment and a lot of our neighbours were Spanish, who worked and lived there. I remember our landlord's daughter's name was Fatima. I wrote a short story on our stay there and have some old photos, I can share.
Questa è l'Algeria, ogni volta che ci spostiamo da una città all'altra cambiano i costumi, le tradizioni, le culture, così come la storia. L'Algeria è un paese con più civiltà, dall'era del primo essere umano ai giorni nostri. Ad esempio, nel sud, nel Tassili N'ajjer, e nel nord, dalla molteplicità delle civiltà (civiltà romana, greca antica, bizantina) alle conquiste islamiche, passando per l'occupazione spagnola e francese fino alla seconda guerra mondiale. In generale, l'Algeria è un teatro aperto che racconta la storia di una terra che rifiuta l'oppressione.

Hello - Montreal is a beautiful city - you must enjoy it. I hope that the welcome you offer for Algeria is heard and more travelers can discover its wonders.
Thanks for your comment - glad you enjoyed the video. Yes - I was very glad to experience it in person (the photos & videos are mine), Algeria is a great country to visit.
Thank you for a most informative video. Your narration is excellent. You have done thorough diligence and it does tribute to those long ago Romans who lived and worked in this city so far from Rome. Was there a military garrison assigned? One thing a bit distracting is bringing in what I assume is culturally local background music and chanting between your narrative comments.I don’t make the connection between that and the ancient city...
Hello - thank you for your comments. Yes - military were stationed there and often retired to the area. I don't know if a specific division was stationed at Djemila. I do like to learn about the places I travel - bit of a history nerd. Regarding the music - I prefer a bit of background to fill out the video - it was recorded in a nearby place.
I hate to ask this question but isn't safe for an American? Could I travel to Djemila from Tunisia? This would be great to see after seeing El Djem in Tunisia.
Algeria seemed to me very safe - but you must travel with a tour company or private tour guide. The tourism industry is not as robust as in either Tunisia or Morocco on either side. I think there is challenges crossing the border by land from Tunisia. But I felt safe and well cared for by our tour guides. It is also challenging to obtain a visa since they do not allow many visitors. So it can be more challenging to visit Algeria - but it is very worthwhile!!

@@livinglikelaura4282 Thank you very much😊 .... I changed the idea🚗. I will go to that place and photograph myself ..... so that it is a special production📖
I was so happy to also see Timgad - future video on Timgad will be coming! I remember studying this site in college and never dreamed that I would one day visit! Algeria is an amazing country.
Thank you for your comment. I believe it was considered to be within the Roman province of Mauratania Sitifensis at the time. Also the area can be referred to as Numidia - usually a little more to the west - but certainly and the boarder lines of Mauritania and Numidia. I continue to research the history.
@@livinglikelaura4282 it was called Numidia and than after the romans defeated Jughartah they gave Numdian lands to the king of Muritania. That's why we were called Muritania But Muritania used to be morroco and parts of Muritania now days

I visited Djémila many years ago. It was every bit as wonderful as it looks in this video. A little known archaeological jewel.
Yes - it is so lovely and not to many tourists ever see it.
I can already tell the algorithm is gonna have a field day, your channel is great and you voice is so pleasant! Can’t wait to see more ♥️

Great video - amazing well-preserved ancient site! Thank you for posting!
It is such a beautiful place.
Really very beautiful, and a place I didn't know existed. it would be a lovely place to visit. I imagine.
Certainly a hidden gem. Glad you enjoyed discovering Djemila.
Im from djemila welcome bro my home its yours
You're doing a great job Thanks for showing the beauty and history of my country and i hope to see videos about the pyramids of the ancient numidia
Thank you - I hope to make more touristic videos about Algeria. So glad you liked watching this one.
Thank you so much... I just enjoyed watching your video... All love from Algeria and keep going.
that place is still in such great shape. such work to make it. later locals didn't take away the stone for recycling much in 2000 years
Certainly one of the best preserved ancient sites that I have visited.
Dear Laura this is giving me Megalithic origins vibes! Lovely video 💞

My understanding that it is part of they road/trade network and support for the security in the area.
