Jedars

Tiaret Province, Algeria

Jedars (French spelling: Djeddars) are thirteen Berber mausoleums located south of Tiaret city in Algeria. The name is derived from the Arabic: جدار jidār (wall), which is used locally to refer to ancient monumental ruins. The pre-Islamic tombs date from late antiquity (4th-7th? centuries CE). Some scholars, such as the French historian Christian Courtois, have associated them with the Romano-Berber Kingdom of Ouarsenis.
