Forum of Banasa — The trapezoidal paved forum (37 x 34 m) of Banasa (also Iulia Valentia Banasa), an ancient city of the province of Mauretania Tingitana (modern-day Morocco). The forum was lined by porticoes and flanked to the north by a rectangular basilica. To the east was a small apsidal hall, and to the south, a temple with seven *cellae* fronted by a portico.
