This site, discussed in scholarly literature in the 20th century, seems from satellite imagery to have been impinged or destroyed in the construction of the Rocade Tipaza/Autoroute Tipaza - Cherchel in the early years of the 21st century. It seems to have been a villa with a central courtyard and primary entrance facing east, with a row of rooms with arched openings overlooking the wadi to the north. Vats and presses, possibly for processing grapes for wine, were discovered. Anselmino hypothesized that another, unexcavated structure immediately to the east was a church.
