Palaeolithic site close to Casablanca on the Moroccan coast with Acheulian levels. There are abundant stone artifacts and a mandible attributed to Homo erectus. These are earlier than the Amirian dune (perhaps 0.5 million years old or 'Mindel') and later than the Saletian dune of about 1 million years of age.

A Palaeolithic site close to Casablanca on the Moroccan coast. A series of pits near the airport has revealed Acheulian levels. These are earlier than the Amirian dune (perhaps 0.5 million years old or ‘Mindel’) and later than the Saletian dune of about one million years of age. They are associated with ancient beaches of an altitude of 60 metres or less.
