After crossing the Oval Square and taking the Cardo maximus, the alley widens, marking the entrance to the Macellum. These are the ancient halls, one of the busiest places in the city. A triple door opens onto an octagonal courtyard with a fountain in the centre. The lion heads were used as trestles for the merchants' stalls. One of them bears the engraving "211" on one side, indicating the probable time of its construction. Many agree that the market was used until the arrival of the Umayyads in the 7th century.

Après la visite des ruines, il est possible de manger sur le pouce à des prix très doux, d' assister à des spectacles de chants et de danse, tout cela dans une ambiance bon enfant et familiale. Se renseigner sur les dates du festival.
