Numerous magnificent and sometimes very high clay buildings indicate a sophisticated construction method in which nothing was left to chance.Since settlement in Skoura was once only possible through the water supply via underground channels, a detailed text article deals with the history and construction of this extraordinary system - the Khettaras.The explorers Charles de Foucauld and Werner Wrage pay tribute to this region in their descriptions with great respect.Prof. Dr. Herbert Popp contributes two special aerial photographs from his archive.Cartographic advice by Prof. Dr. Uwe Ulrich Jäschke.
