Decoding Spatial Framework of Roman-African Domus, Case of Cuicul (Djemila) Algeria

Roman-African domus, as exemplified in the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Djemila (Algeria), encode cultural identity through their spatial configurations. These residences employ a hierarchical organization with transitional spaces that govern activity separation and control access, revealing ancient social norms. Space syntax analysis demonstrates how these structures create movement pathways while maintaining functional distinctions, offering insights into historical human behavior and interactions between inhabitants and outsiders.
