Thamusida

Kénitra Province, Morocco

Thamusida (Punic: 𐤕𐤌𐤃𐤏𐤕) was originally a Punic river port located in the present-day towns of Kénitra and Mehdya in Morocco. Under the Roman Empire, it formed a part of the province of Mauretania Tingitana, and starting in the seventh century it was occupied as part of the Arab conquests. Archaeologically, the site has been studied in several waves, most recently between 1999 and 2006, where excavations focused mainly on Roman and Islamic occupancy and found information mostly regarding the import and local production of food and building supplies.
