Les Mausolées Royaux de Numidie (Tunisia)

Les Mausolées Royaux de Numidie, de la Maurétanie et les monuments funéraires pré-islamiques (Tunisia) is part of the Tentative list of Tunisia in order to qualify for inclusion in the World Heritage List. Parts of this site have already been inscribed under Dougga/Thugga WHS.

The Royal Mausoleums of Numidia, Mauretania and pre-Islamic funerary monuments show the exchanges of influence between the native Maghreb civilization and the Phoenician-Punic civilization or the Hellenistic-Egyptian ones. The proposal comprises a series of 5 examples of funerary architecture across Tunisia. The Numidian civilization covers a historical period from the end of the 2nd millennium BC to the 2nd century AD.
