RUINS OF MOROCCO’S AGHMAT TO BE RENOVATED

Morocco plans to upgrade the archaeological site of the Berber city of Aghmat. The city, 30 kilometres east of Marrakesh, flourished in the medieval era during the Amoravid dynasty, in the eleventh century.

The remains of what was one of the country’s richest cities, a place that ceased to exist at the start of the modern era, comprise hundreds of metres of walls, irrigation channels, baths (hammams) and private houses.
