Ancient Village or Settlement in Morocco

Mentioned in Wikipedia, "a road leading in southern direction from Tingis split in two at Ad Mercuri. One of the two followed the Atlantic coast through Iulia Constantia Zilil (Asilah), Lixus (Larache) and Sala Colonia (near Rabat). The other, more to the east, ended in Tocolosida, near Volubilis and modern Fez."
