World Heritage Committee Description:
Timgad lies on the northern slopes of the Aurès mountains and was created ex nihilo as a military colony by the Emperor Trajan in AD 100. With its square enclosure and orthogonal design based on the cardo and decumanus, the two perpendicular routes running through the city, it is an excellent example of Roman town planning.
蒂姆加德位于奥雷斯山(the Aurès mountains)北麓,是公元100年古罗马皇帝图拉真(the Emperor Trajan)建立的军事殖民地。城市是方形垂直布局,以纵横两轴为基础,两条相互垂直的大街穿越整个城市,是古罗马城市规划的杰出代表。
