Tour 1 Leptis Magna 4 days



The considerable expansion occurred at Sabratha, Oea and especially Leptis Magna, born city of the great Roman Emperor Septimus Severus, and the prosperity to which it testifies was no doubt due to the rising tide of trade with Rome and the Mediterranean world.

In fact Tripolitania (ancient Phoenician Emporia) was well placed to tap the resources of the African Saharian lands which could supply goods highly demanded in the ancient world.

The limes Tripolitanus were created to crush the invaders coming from the southern side of Libya to raid the coast.
