History
Remains of a Roman settlement called, or at a place called, Kalaa in the 19th century. It occupied a ridge approximately 1 kilometer in length and ranging from 200-300 meters in width, the eastern end of which is now covered by a small settlement and cemetery known as Sidi Aissa on the border of the Algerian provinces of Chlef and Relizane.
