There is of course the post put forward in Re-enactment and Reconstruction at the moment about the XI Parma center boss which is the Personification of Africa. This boss has the the inscription COH I GAE FRVNTONI CVMVNI (First Cohort of Gaetulorum...) The cohort was raised in Africa and served in Syria from 88 to 91 AD they were the GAETULI or GETULI this tribe came from the region of MORROCO.
The center boss in the post by Alexander has been cast however I am currently beating out a copy in brass at this time, here are links to the boss that I am producing but for the finished item see XI Parma at re-enactment and reconstruction.
