Mozia is an island in the Stagnone Lagoon, off the west coast of Sicily between Marsala and Trapani. A remarkable site of Phoenician ruins, the island preserves traces of a once-thriving settlement—stone roads, defensive walls, temples, and homes—making it one of the most evocative ancient landscapes in the western Mediterranean.
