Length of 15 meters by 9 in width and 9 in height, its interior ornamentation is of the simplest; The outer frieze, on the contrary, is richly ornamented. The pilasters are decorated with the heads of rams and bulls with their strips of sacrifice. Seen from the front, eagles with open wings, holding in their claws two serpents, adorn those of greater dimensions; These eagles were taken for owls, birds of Minerva, who gave him his denomination.

Door of Caracalla - The arch was built between 211 and 214 by means of a testamentary donation of Gaius Cornelius Egrilianus, Prefect of the XIV legion, who was originally from Thebeste.[1] The figure set aside for the construction was 250,000 sesterti.[2] Later, the arch was reused as the northern gate of the city wall in the Byzantine period. The lateral arches were walled up, as was the northern one, until they were reopened by French military engineers during the colonial period. #History photo contest
Tebessa, Algeria. It is located 146 miles (235 km) by road south of Annaba and 12 miles (19 km) west of the frontier with Tunisia. Tébessa was an outpost of Carthage in the 7th century BCE and a Roman garrison town in 146 BCE. It declined in the 5th and 6th centuries CE and disappeared from history after the Arab invasion of the 7th century. The Turks stationed a small military garrison there, and, after French rule began in Algeria in 1830, Tébessa was developed as the easternmost of the Algerian gateways to the south. #history
