Archaeology In May 2026, archaeologists excavating the Moharram Bek uncovered architectural remains and artifacts dating to the Ptolemaic, Roman, and Byzantine periods. The excavation, conducted by Egypt’s Supreme Council of Antiquities, revealed a circular public bath of the Tholos type from the late Ptolemaic period and the remains of a Roman residential villa containing mosaic floors created using Opus Tessellatum and Opus Sectile techniques. Archaeologists also identified hydraulic installations associated with bathing facilities and water management. Recovered artifacts included marble statues interpreted as depictions of Bacchus, Asclepius, and Minerva, as well as coins, pottery vessels, oil lamps, and stamped amphora fragments. According to researchers, the findings provide evidence for continuous occupation of the area from the Ptolemaic period until the Byzantine era and contribute to studies of the historical urban layout of Alexandria.
