Morocco abounds with museums overflowing with treasures. (Brochure available from the Moroccan National Tourist Office). Civilisation in Morocco goes back to prehistoric times - thirty centuries that have included Roman, Berber and Arab cultures. This rich past has left impressive ruins at Larache, Lixus, Cotta, Banasa or Volubilis and some surprising cave dwellings at Tarraga, Tamegoul, Merkala, Taourirt, Erfoud, Taous and, the most impressive, Foum El Hassan.
