AQUAE DACICAE

AQUAE DACICAE in the interior of Mauretania Tingitana, between Volubilis and Gilda. (Itin. Ant. p. 23.).

[P.S]

AQUAE DACICAE (Sidi Moulay Yakoub) Morocco.

Situated in Mauretania Tingitana (Ant. It. 23.3), it should be identified with the ruins of some large Roman baths found in the valley of the el Hamma river 20 km S of Sidi-Slimane, near the sulphurous spring Sidi Moulay Yakoub. Piped since Roman times, the spring fed, by aqueduct, several pools that have been partially preserved. They are in the center of houses that extended over roughly 50 m.
