Egypt to Excavate Roman City
Filed under: add to del.icio.us
Egyptian authorities are permitting an underwater exploration of what appears to be a Roman city submerged in the Mediterranean. An excavation team discovered the ruins of the Roman city 35 kilometers (20 miles) east of the Suez Canal on Egypt's north coast. Archaeologists uncovered buildings, bathrooms, ruins of a Roman fortress, ancient coins, bronze vases, and pieces of pottery, all dating back to the Roman era.
