EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Sabratha's Ancient Ruins: A Peek into Tripolitania's Rich Roman Heritage" Nestled in the heart of Tripolitania, Libya, lies the enchanting archaeological site of Sabratha. This evocative image captured by Sergio Pitamitz portrays the abandoned, yet awe-inspiring, Roman ruins that stand as a testament to the region's rich history and cultural heritage. The clear, azure sky stretches endlessly above, providing a striking contrast to the weathered, vertical columns of the ancient structures. The repetition of these columns, standing tall against the desert backdrop, speaks volumes about the grandeur and sophistication of the Roman civilization that once thrived here. Sabratha, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, was an essential trading post along the Mediterranean Sea during the Roman era. Its strategic location allowed it to flourish as a significant cultural melting pot, with influences from Carthage, Rome, and the Sahara desert. The once magnificent buildings, now run down and covered in dust and grime, still hold stories of the past. The ruins include a theater, temples, and a basilica, all of which bear the marks of time and the relentless desert winds. The Mediterranean Sea, visible in the distance, adds to the serene beauty of the scene. The horizon, where the sea meets the sky, creates a breathtaking tableau that draws the eye and transports the viewer to another time. This image is a poignant reminder of the importance of preserving our ancient landmarks and the history they hold. Sabratha's ruins stand as a symbol of the African continent's deep-rooted cultural heritage and its connection to the ancient Roman civilization. Sergio Pitamitz's captivating photograph invites us to explore the hidden gems of North Africa and to appreciate the beauty and history that lies within its borders.
