Abstract
In the late 7th century, the Umayyads of Syria annexed the Province of the Maghrib (medieval North Africa). This episode of North African history left a major and long-lasting impact on the region's political, economic, sociocultural, and demographic structures. Islamic archaeology sets to investigate the material evidence this impact left. This entry examines the method and theory of conducting Islamic archaeology in North Africa, with a focus on the medieval period and on Morocco where the most sustained development has been achieved.
