in 553. No longer a residential bishopric, Cuicul is today listed by the Catholic Church as a titular see. The city was slowly abandoned after the fall of the Roman Empire around the 5th century and 6th century. There were some improvements under emperor Justinian I, with wall reinforcements. Muslims later dominated the region, but did not reoccupy the site of Cuicul, which they renamed Djémila ("beautiful" in Arabic). 3D documentation The spatial documentation of Djémila took place during two Zamani Project field campaigns in 2009, which were undertaken in co-operation with Prof Hamza Zeghlache and his team from the University of Setif, Algeria, as well as the South African National Research Foundation (NRF). Several structures were documented, including the Baptistry, the Caracalla Gate, the Market, the Septimius-servus Temple and the Theatre. Notable residents Several significant Romanized Africans were born in Cuicul: Lucius Alfenus Senecio: governor of Britannia (205 to 207). Gaius Valerius Pudens: governor of Britannia. Tiberius Claudius Subatianus Aquila: governor of Mesopotamia and Egypt. Tiberius Claudius Subatianus Proculus: governor of Numidia.
