摘要

Tahaddart (Tangier, Morocco) is a Roman site with eight fish salting plants, excavated and published in the 1960s. Since then, the site, which is located on a sandy spit between a meander of the Tahaddart river and the Atlantic Ocean, had remained forgotten and hidden under dense vegetation. In 2021, the MAROCO project (INSAP-University of Vigo) was started with the aim of analyzing the trade contacts of the ancient province of Mauretania Tingitana during Antiquity. The main focus of the project lies in Tahaddart, including systematic excavations and a multidisciplinary project that seeks to resume studies on the production and distribution of salted fish products in northern Morocco. This article summarizes the main results of the three archaeological campaigns and the geophysical survey carried out at Tahaddart to date, focusing in particular on the salted fish industrial buildings (floor plans, internal distribution and phases).
