Vicus Maracitanus was a pre-Roman settlement that became a Roman civitas, identified with ruins at modern Ksar Toual Zammel in Siliana province, Tunisia. The chief monument is a Capitolium temple with a likely hexastyle pronaos overlooking a forum square. Excavations revealed street sections, cisterns, a possible Christian chapel, and a well-preserved two-story mausoleum with a pilastered facade. Inscriptions found in situ confirmed the site's Roman name, definitively proving it was distinct from Zama Regia, contrary to earlier scholarly speculation.
