Tamdoult was a medieval city located near the Draa River, southeast of Akka, Morocco. It was a significant and thriving stop on the Trans-Saharan trade route, linking Nul (Asrir) and Ouadane to Sijilmasa, Massa, and N’fis. The city was founded in the second century BC by the Berber Shilha. In the ninth century, one of the sons of Idris II, founder of the Idrisid dynasty, was granted a principality in the Sous to rule over the Lamta tribe.
The city and its fortress were allegedly destroyed in the 14th century by a king of the Marinid dynasty. Today, the shrine of Sidi Mohamed ben Abdallah Ichanaoui is the only surviving structure at the ruins site.
