Leptis Magna (Libya)

Leptis Magna, on Libya’s Mediterranean coast, was founded by Phoenicians and flourished under Roman rule, especially during Emperor Septimius Severus’s reign (193–211 CE). The city’s architecture—an expansive forum, amphitheater, and triumphal arch—showcases Rome’s urban grandeur fused with North African artistry. As a major trade port, Leptis Magna connected Africa’s interior with the Roman world. It declined after invasions and desert encroachment. Buried in sand for centuries, its rediscovery revealed some of the best-preserved Roman ruins outside Italy, offering a vivid glimpse of imperial life on the empire’s southern frontier.
