Righa. This forgotten site may have been an ancient capital of Morocco

Located 8 kilometres north of Sidi Slimane, in the meanders of the Oued Beht, Righa has emerged as one of Morocco’s most promising archaeological sites. After twenty years of research, the Franco-Moroccan mission has further elevated the site’s importance: the discovery of Roman baths and previously unknown wine presses has strengthened the hypothesis that this ten-hectare city, long overshadowed by Volubilis, may have been one of the capitals of the Mauretanian kingdom.
