AQUAE DACICAE
(Sidi Moulay Yakoub) Morocco.
Situated in Mauretania Tingitana (
Ant. It. 23.3),
it should be identified with the ruins of some large Roman baths found in the valley of the el Hamma river
20 km S of Sidi-Slimane, near the sulphurous spring
Sidi Moulay Yakoub. Piped since Roman times, the
spring fed, by aqueduct, several pools that have been
partially preserved. They are in the center of houses
that extended over roughly 50 m.
