This 12-metre-long axis, located in the Roman city of Tipasa, is a section of road that linked Caesarea (Cherchell) to Icosium (Algiers).
In the wake of the archaeological visits, we continue with this sector. Like all Roman cities, Tipasa was organized around its two main axes: Decumanus and Cardo, which intersect at the level of the temple. The uncovered part of the Decumanus, with its particularly well-preserved pavement, joins the Cesarean Gate to the west to the Cardo to the east. This axis of 12 m wide is a section of the road which connected Caesarea (Cherchell) to Icosium (Algiers). At its crossing with the Cardo, the rounded stones testify of the passage of the chariots.
