QASR UWEINID
A small fort lost in the sand and rock, abandoned due to famine in the 5th century, this is a place not to be missed
The Romans built this small fort lost in the sands and rocks to ensure their control over the area. Its geographical situation allowed the legions that followed to benefit from a view of the valley, and thus to anticipate possible opposing attacks. Its construction lasted less than a year, and its asymmetrical plan, with its angled entrance, is quite particular. In the5th century, it was abandoned because of famine. If the whole is rather ruined, there remain inscriptions left by the Romans.
