“Germaniciana”的意思、由来-开放百科全书

Location

The location of Abbir Germaniciana is unknown but:

Adolf Harnack suggests it may have been near Membressa,^[4] in the Medjerda River Valley.

Today Henchir el Naam, a location west of El Fahs and north of Theveste near lake Sebkhet el Kourzia, has support as the location of Abbir Maius.^[5] This would place the city on the Meliane Wadi.

Others, citing Roman sources, claim in the vicinity of Theveste, as Abbir Germaniciana is mentioned by the Geographer of Ravenna as just the Germana, and Antonine Itinerary as Ad Germani, and both authors place it in the vicinity of Theveste.^[6]

Which ever location it was in, it was definitely on along the coastal hinterlands of the Maghreb.

Still others^[7]^[8] suggest ruins of Ksour-el-Maïete near the Cherita and the Sebkhet de Sidi El Hani lakes, in southern Tunisia.

Bishopric

The town was also the seat of an ancient bishopric. The city appears to have been Catholic before the Diocletian Persecution but was taken into the Vandal Kingdom around 429 AD, and with the arrival of the Islamic armies at the end of the 7th century the bishopric ceased to effectively function.
