Timici
Timici was a Phoenician, Numidian, and Roman town located in present-day Ain Matboul, Algeria (between Sidi M'hamed Ben Ali and Taougrit).
Timici is a Latinization of the town's Punic name 𐤕𐤌𐤊𐤉 (tmky).
Timici means fire in Tamazight.[citation needed]
Timici minted its own bronze coins with Punic legends.
Under the Romans, Timici was a native town (civitas) in the province of Mauretania Caesariensis.
The town was previously identified with the ruins at Aïn Témouchent, which were actually the remnants of Roman Albulae.
Timici was the seat of a Christian bishop in antiquity. Three of them appear in the surviving historical record. The title fell into abeyance during the Islamic conquest of the Maghreb but was revived as a Roman Catholic titular see (Latin: Dioecesis Timicitana) in the 20th century.
