Abstract

In this work, a timeline map regarding the construction and the development of the archaeological Roman city Cuicul, Algeria, was established by thermoluminecence dating technique. The city was first subdivided into 10 main zones according to the observable architecture similarities and extensions. Already tested thermoluminescence dating procedure (Kharfi et al. in J Radioanal Nucl Chem 320:395–403, 2019) was used for the average age determination. The established timeline map fit well with the globally known history of the city and its development between the 1st and the 5th centuries except for the case of the great baths where an expectable date was determined (182 A.D.) which requires more studies.
