Étude historique, archéologique et architecturale d'un tronçon de l'enceinte almohade de la ville de Ksar El-Kébir.
Abstract
This article focuses on the historical, archaeological, and architectural study of a remaining section of the Almohad city wall in Ksar el-Kébir. Based on Arabic historical sources and on-site observations, the study aims to document and analyse the architectural characteristics, construction techniques, and current state of conservation of this vestige. The wall, dating back to the reign of Yaʿqūb al-Mansūr, is an important example of Almohad military architecture and reflects the urban and strategic importance of the city during the 12th and 13th centuries.
