Volubilis - North Carolina

This postcard comes from my penpal and benefactor Peggy, announcing an upcoming move. I had never heard of Volubilis before, so I was enchanted to learn it’s a partially excavated Berber city in Morocco, commonly believed to be the ancient capital of Mauretania.

Since Peggy typically adheres to the rule of never buying a postcard for a site she hasn’t visited, I have to assume she’s visited this one! Terrific! I don’t think I’ve seen any ancient Roman sites outside of Rome, so I hope one day to see it for myself. Merci, merci!
