Oglet-Khefifa

Oglet Khefifa is a locality in Sfax Governorate southern Tunisia, located in the semi arid area south of Sfax.[1]

Ruins at Oglet Khefifa have previously been identified with Macomades[2] now thought to be little farther to the north, at Henchir el Ghorib .

An interpretation of the text of the life of St. Fulgence[3] makes identification with the remains of ancient Bennefa more probable.[4]
