Places <u>Tituan</u> * The port of T<u>Tituan</u> * The port of Tituan (alias Tetuan, Tétouan) is located in the modern state of Morocco. The Wikipedia entry on 'Tetouan' descibes it as: <br /> "''The city is situated about 60 km east of the city of Tangier and 40 km south of the Spanish exclave of Ceuta (Sebta) and the Strait of Gibraltar. It is in the far north of the Rif Mountains. To the south and west of the city there are mountains. Tetuan is situated in the middle of a belt of orchards that contain orange, almond, pomegranate and cypress trees. The Rif Mountains are nearby, as the city is located in the Martil Valley. It is picturesquely situated on the northern slope of a fertile valley down which flows the Martil river, with the harbour of Tetouan, Martil, at its mouth. Behind rise rugged masses of rock, the southern wall of the Anjera country, once practically closed to Europeans, and across the valley are the hills which form the northern limit of the still more impenetrable Rif.''"UNIQd9a9e8429dc10923-ref-00000389-QINU * Early-C17th English state papers refer to "Algier, Tunis, Sallie, Tituan and other portes of Barbary"UNIQd9a9e8429dc10923-ref-0000038C-QINUy"UNIQd9a9e8429dc10923-ref-0000038C-QINU  +
