History

Although of great antiquity, N'Gaous has not received much historical attention.

N'Gaous is the site of the ancient city of Nicives. Located in the late Roman province of Numidia, and which flourished through the Vandal Kingdom and Roman Empire into late antiquity. Nicives was deemed important enough to serve for a period as a suffragan bishopric.[3][4]

In the Middle Ages the town was praised by travelers and noted for its nuts, apricot orchards and olive trees. Still known for its fruit, it has become center for it production since the introduction of abundant water, and the orchards, and this is contained in some travel books.

In Antiquity N'Gaous was the seat of a Christian bishopric which is presently a Roman Catholic titular see. Although it ceased to function with the Muslim conquest of the Maghreb in the 7th century, the diocese was nominally restored in 1933 as a titular bishopric.

  • Stanley Joseph Ott (1976.05.24 – 1983.01.13)
