might iye ftill farther to the E. beyond the Frontiers of This 

 Province. 



I take that particular Chain of Mountains, which lyeth be- ^^ ^o""- 

 tween the maritime and midland Plain-Country, to be the Con- 

 tinuation of Mount Atlas. We have a full Profpe6t of Them 

 all along the Mettijiah ; efpecially from the Hills in the Neigh- 

 bourhood of u^lgiers. At the River Zeitoune, They begin to 

 turn towards the S. E. and, joyning Jurjura, alter Their Di- 

 redion, and tend more to the Southward. In This Pofition 

 They are continued through the Mountains oilfan-nougah^ and, 

 uniting afterwards with J'lhhel I-aite, begin once more to run 

 parallel with the Coait. 



A Few Miles to the N. N. E. of the Ma-faffran, theTurretta 

 Weftern Boundary of This Province, we have a round \vatchvii.£xf. 

 Tower, built upon a rocky €αγ6, that ftretcheth Itfelf about a^"^* 

 Furlong into the Sea. It is known in fome modern Sea Charts 

 by the Name of [ Turretta Chica ] The little Tower, but the 

 Moors call It Seedy Perje from the Name of the Marah-hutt, 

 who is there interred. Within the Cape there is a fmall Creek, 

 with a little Bay on each Side of It, where VeiTels fometimes 

 put in for ilielter againft ftrong Eafterly Winds. We have 

 at This Place fome few Walls and Cifterns of Roman Work- 

 manfliip, which, by the Order of the Tables, may lay Claim 

 to Ttolemfs Via. We meet with feveral Pieces of a Roman 

 High Way betwixt Seedy Ferje, Ras Accon-natter and Algiers \ 

 and near the Tomb oi Seedy Hallif\ another Marahhutt, about 

 the halt Way betwixt Seedy Ferje and Algiers, we fall in with 

 a Number of Graves, covered with large flat Stones, each of 

 Them big enough to receive two or three Bodies. 



The high Mountain of Boojereah, with If s three contiguous Boojereah. 

 "Dafikras, are nine Miles from Seedy Ferje to the N. E. and 

 about half a League from Them, to the W. N.W. is the i?^RasAccon- 

 Accon-natter, the Cape Caxines of our modern Sea Charts. Be- Cape'c 

 fides a Fountain of good Water, we have likewife at This Place 

 fome Ruins, with the Traces of a fmall Aquedudt, that might 

 formerly conduft aPart of the Water towards Seedy Ferje or Via.
