| Shrnutí: | Within this study the dark origin of the City of Algiers alongside its filiation over which historians and geographers are far from agreeing, will be evoked. A little harbour built by a number of legendary people such as the libyans, the getups, Persians, medians, armenians? Creation of this port precisely by Hercules and his Greeks, Didon and her Phoenicians, Juba II and his berbers, Caesar and his Romans...? So many – fabulous? – conjectures. It was not short of names as reported, sometimes erroneously by their authors: Ruscunum, Saldae, Icosium, Icosim, Caesarea or Julia Caesarea, Algezir, Mezgrana, then Jazâ'ir Bani Mazghannna, Jazâ'ir at-Tha'âliba and finally Jazâ'ir al-Gharb under the Ottomans. Among the number of authors requested for this study, we have undoubtedly privileged the Latin writings of the Flemish historian and polygraph J.-B. Gramaye, who had written prolifically on « Africa », of which his Africa Illustra (10 volumes) in 1622. |
