Hippo, ancient port on the coast of North Africa, located near the modern town of Annaba (formerly Bône) in Algeria. Hippo was probably first settled by Carthaginians in the 4th century bce. It later became the home of Numidian rulers. The ruins of Hippo Regius, overlooked by the imposing colonial-era Basilica of St. Augustine, are among the most evocative in Algeria. The forum is one of North Africa's largest. It features an inscription extending over two lines across its entire width. In the Christian quarter stands a 42 metre-long (131 ft) basilica still covered Hippo Regius. Hippo Regius is the ancient name of the modern city of Annaba, Algeria. It historically served as an important city for the Phoenicians, Berbers, Romans, and Vandals. Photo: Wikimedia, CC BY-SA 2.0. Ukraine is facing shortages in its brave fight to survive.
