City of Alexandria Egypt

Located on the Mediterranean sea in northern Egypt, the city of Alexandria is one of the Seven Wonders of The Ancient World. This coastal city is magnificently located to trade with many other scholar and port cities. Intellectual and economical growth may be both due to the invention of the vending machine and convenient local trading routes. The libraries and schools of Alexandria are known to attract mathematicians who like snacks, scholars who like inventing things, scientists who like inventing new snack services, and philosophers who will admire what great quality and service can offer to the snack trading routes of the 21st century.
Jennifer Connors, a known as a snack artist, enthusiast and mathematician may one day hope that the great city of Alexandria will provide superior vending services.
Eratosthenes lived in Alexandria in 194 - 276 BC was could calculate the earth's circumference within 50 miles.

Euclid lived and taught at University in Alexandra forever influenced the mathematical minds of our world. He pointed out that a circle can be constructed when a point for its center and a distance for its radius are given. Perhaps, this kit kat is for you Euclid.


In Relativie questions about Relativity, calculating the volume of a sphere based of Euclidian geometry is of fundamental logic.
Here's a few Unanswered Top Questions in Physics for Interested Mathematicians. Expansion of spherical light/energy == universal expanson estimates. Finshing Einsteins work on unifiying gravity == Energy density / average estimations of energymatter spheres. Amplfication of forces in or around energy spheres == Four Fundamentals. The Cause of time Dilation == Four fundamentals == Space, Energy, Time, Gravity. Stellar implosions impacts and energetical/gravitation distortions in space time otherwise known as black holes. Archimedes lived in Alexandria in 212 - 287 BC, is known as a great mathematician and astronomer of the times.
Hero lived in Alexandria in 10-70 BC is known as an engineer and mathematician. He invented the first vending machine, thanks for all the great snacks hero!
I lived off kit kats for two years straight once, it didn't do my teeth any good, but you can't complain when you only need to shop in a parking lot.

The library of Alexandria was completed by scholars who like snacks too.

Older Than The Ages Archaeologists Dig up Village From Before 5000 BC


Archaeoligists have dugup one of the oldest villages on earth, it dates back to the Neolithic period and was discovered by Egyptian-French discoverer Frederick Guyot as per the Ministry of Antiquities.


Found at this early settlement site were stone tools, pottery, but something was missing.... there might have been a hidden warning. This discovery site shows a little about what life near the wetlands of the Delta would look like between 2,500 and 10,000 BC. A

Near Tell El Samara, a Neolithic site in the province of Dakahlia, is approximately 140 kilometers north of Cairo.




Dr. Ayman Ashmawy, stated that they were interested in excavating buildings inthe lower hills specifically. Many of the buildings or structures may not be well known in this area. During the excavation the archaeologists are looking for leftover evidence of human activities, so far they have turned up storage silos containing plant and animal remains from the local community that lived there.

These dicoveries at Tell-Al Samara since 2015 have given archaeologists” a unique opportunity to identify the prehistoric communities that lived in the Delta for thousands of years before the First Dynasty” stated Guyor.

Great Pyramid of Giza and The Story of The Tallet Papyrus



The Great Pyramids of Giza are amongst the most famous Seven Wonders of the Ancient World that still stand today. First discovered in modern times by Sir William Matthew Flinders Petrie in 1880.


The pyramids, built during the frenetic period between 2490 and 2560 B.C. are now located in modern times in the city known as Greater Cairo, Egypt. Markings within the temple indicate that the Great Pyramid was built as a burial site for the Egyptian monarch Khufu. The Great Pyramids of Giza once held the title of the tallest structure on earth for many thousands of years, being estimated to have been over 480 feet tall when originally built long before it's outer casings had been lost to the elements. The outside exterior as seen today is actually the underlying core structure as this pyramid was once fully covered in limestone casings.

The largest  of the pyramids is known as the Great Pyramid of Giza; dully entitled the Pyramid of Khufu or Pyramid of Cheops, it's the oldest pyramid with elaborate burial chambers built witn-in. Three chambers are located within the The Great Pyramid, the lowest is cut into the bedrock at the Pyramid's foundation and remains unfinished. Above lies the King and Queen's burial chambers. 

On site of the Giza Necropolis are also smaller pyramids built for Khufu's wives, additional mortuary temples, mastaba tombs, ship building facilities, connecting causeways and Sphynx Gaurdian at one entry. Khufu's daughter Nefertiabet as well is buried on site along with his wives and many other relatives. It's said that the pyramids original wealth's were emptied centuries before being re-opened in modern day.


Recently in 2015 an ancient document was uncovered by archeologists, known to be the oldest papyrus in the world. The Tallet Papyrus was found in a series of 30 ancient caves located in Wadi al-Jarf near the Red Sea. This location is very far from any known city, perhaps aiding it's survival over so many centuries. The team accredited with the discovery is composed of French and Egyptian archaeologists, who after years of excuvations located several ancient papyrus scrolls. Written upon these scrolls in hieratic and heiroglyphs are stories accounting the adventures of a worker named Merer, who worked to deliver construction materials to the great pyramid building site as it was built. Today the discovery is known as the Tallet Papyrus.

This ancient writing, being more than 4,500 years old is now the oldest writing on earth and was found in relatively good condition. It provides a glimpse into The Fourth Dynasty of Old Egypt and is the only known supporting document relating to building the Great Pyramid of Giza.

The Tallet papyrus details how the giant slabs of limestone were delivered to the pyramids building sites, which details have long remained illusive. Merer's accounts have indicated that the limestone slabs were actually carried across the Nile through canals and then rolled on special tracks. The writing also describes how copper was mined in Wadi al-Jaraf and used to make stone cutting tools for the project. Inscriptions at the excavation site provide detail that the pharaohs of the times sent thousands of workers in search of copper, turquoise and other valuable materials for their projects. Most treasures have long since been lost to the test of time, however the pyramids still attract the attentions of our worlds people today.

Visit Egypt's Lost Sunken City Heracleion and it's Sunken Treasures




Lost Ancient Harbor City Thonis Heracleion Revealed
Legends and Myths throughout told about this lost city have long left a mystery as to where it went and what fate had in store for Hercleion until recently. Ten years ago no one knew if Heracleion was fictitious or a real place, after many years of searching researchers have finally confirmed finding the lost city of Heracleion 150 feet below the surface of Egypt's Bay of Aboukir. This find has unearthed a treasure trove of ancient artifacts. In tales the city of Heracleion was known as a great harbor city throughout the ages. Items found so far in 64 ships, 16 statues and many smaller artifacts like jewelry, gold and silver.

This enormous statue represents the god Hapi who ruled and watched over the Nile and his statues can be found decorating the city temples across the lost city of Heracleion. 

Hapi is known as a symbol of abundance and fertility, has never before been discovered at such a large size. This statue reaches over 5 meters tall. The discovery of Heracleion who was named by the Greeks and ancient Egyptians is just amazing because the entire city had disappeared into the sea over 1200 years ago!


The excavations have dramatically revealed this beautiful city and what it was like before it was lost into the sea. The finds include architectural elements, colossal statues, inscriptions, coins, jewelry, ceramics and ritual objects that reveal the many intricacies of the people who live here many years ago in time.


Recovered gold from underwater excavation at Heracleion

Relics recovered by excavations reveal this lost cities’ beauty and glory long before it was swallowed by the sea. Many  great finds like colossal statues, inscriptions, cultural elements, jewelry, coins, ritual objects and ceramics have been found so far and each reveals what it might have been like to live in Heracleion. The finds show this city to be crucial to the ancient world economy. Huge lots of gold coins, bronze, as well as lead and stone weights used to measure value of goods coming into the harbor in ancient times have been found at the bottom of the sea. With many ancient sunken to the bottom of the bay, this is clearly the largest number of ancient vessels located in one location.

Egyptian God Isis found at Heracleion

Statues of Hapi the ancient Egyptian goddess and also Isis who was an Egyptian goddess have been found at the excavation site. Also found was an unidentified pharaoh and many other smaller statues of gods, pharaoh's, queens and assorted figurines. On site there was a sacrificial site dedicated to the God Amun-Gereb where animals were mummified then placed into sarcophagus's as gifts to 
Amun-Gereb the supreme god of the Egyptians.


The discovery is credited to the underwater Frank Goddio who first found the site. The date of the city is estimated to roughly 8th century B.C. far older than the lost city of Alexandra. The city endured many disasters over the years before being swallowed by the sea around 700 A.D. Soil erosion and rising sea levels likely played a part to the cities demise. 


This sunken treasure was also known as the City of Thonis; it's described as the main sea hub that controlled traffic in the Mediterranean Sea. Routes led to many famous cities delivering goods to Alexandria, Algeciras, Athens, Arish, Barcelona,  Beirut, Cannes, Damietta, Gaza, Haifa,  Ibiza, Nice, Marseille, Marbella, Port Said, Rome, Sarande, Sibenik, Tangier, Tunis, Tripoli, Tel Aviv Jaffa, Valencia and Valetta.

Out new rich understanding of the city allows us to see that it played a vital role in maritime economy due to close proximity to prospering Mediterranean countries such as Algeria, Albania, Croatia, Cyprus, Egypt, France, Greece, Italy, Libya, Montenegro, Morocco, Palestine, Slovenia, Spain, Syria, Tunisia and Turkey during the late period Egyptian era. As a major international trading port for Egypt it also served as a levy point for trade taxes and export duties.


Tales through the ages describe stories of Helen visiting the cities with her lover Paris just before the beginning of the Trojan War. 

A Monolithic chapel  found called Noas dates back to the Ptolemaic period and was  key to identifying this underwater excavation site and the lost city of Thonis-Heracleion.

This is known as the stele of Thonis-Heracleion was order by Nectanebo I (378-362 BC) and nearly identical to the stele of Naukratis at the Egyptian Museum in Cairo, written upon this stele is the city Thonis-Heracleion.

This remarkable find is the life long dream of both treasure hunters and historians alike!

Egypt's Baron Palace Has Not Been Sold




As one of the most famous Palaces in Heliopolis if not all of Egypt the Baron Empain Palace is a destination for any tourist and history enthusiast.

Recently controversy arose over a rumor that the palace was being sold for 5 million EGP, with many different media outlets reporting on this. However, Egyptian Antiquities report that the palace is owned by the Egyptian Government and they are denying reports that it was sold.

More so the palace can never be sold, it's against Egyptian Law and Constitution. Under the Cultural Regulation Law, the building will remain public property and cannot turn into a private one.

An Official of Antiquities Youssef Khalifa also confirmed that the government owns the palace and the heirs entitled to the palace have been compensated. The story turns out that another property owned by Empain's heirs was sold, however it was located ion Al-Thawra Street, which is close by in the neighborhood where the Baron Palace resides, and this is the cause of the misunderstanding.

The Baron Palace originally built in the 20th century was designed by French Architect Alexandre Marcel. As a tale of the times the Baron Empain played a major role in redesigning the upper class neighborhood in Cairo, Egypt since his arrival in 1904. He also established his own business called the Heliopolis Oasis Co. purchasing large amounts of land and turned it into the present day city.

There is however a little more to the story. Later in 1929 the Baron after death was buried under the

Basilica Church in Heliopolis, the two were linked to the Baron's Palace by an underground tunnel.


Edouard Louis Joseph, the Baron Empain started life as a wealthy Belgian engineer by trade. He became known as an entrepreneur, financier and industrialist later in life. One of his favorite hobbies was learning about the culture and history of Egypt himself, and by this he became an Egyptologist. During World War I the Baron also earned the ranking of a Major General. The Baron also founded Cairo Electric Railways and Heliopolis Oases Company.

The Baron Empain lived from 20 September 

1852 – 22 July 1929

Oldest Egyptian Leather Munscript Discovered




To date the oldest Egyptian leather manuscript has been discovered on the shelves of an old Egyptian Museum... having been forgotten for nearly 100 years. The manuscript was thought to have been lost many years ago, dating back to 2300-2000 BC it measures up to 2.5 meters and contains valuable texts, colorful drawings and reveals new valuable information of the Egyptian Culture at that time in history.



Understanding that the manuscripts have texts and drawings on each side, the ancient roll measures up to 5 meters which makes it the longest leather roll found from ancient Egypt.” These ancient manuscripts contain religious texts and drawings that portray supernatural beings. Religious spells and texts are also found in the manuscript and it is believed that priests at the time used to recite them.

Sherbiny indicates that the roll portrays texts that illustrate a variety of temple rituals later adapted and performed at funerals. Similar events are commonly seen in the Middle Kingdom' of Egypt throughout the coffins of Necropolis of Hermopolis in Upper Egypt.



Amazingly the roll offers a more detailed iconography than previously found Hermopolitan coffins in terms of texts and drawings making this an exciting discovery. Sherbiny also pointed out that the historic roll shows aspects that were known to Egyptologists before appearing on the Hermopolis coffins. It is also thought that some segments of the writings were probably not the creation of Hermopolitan theologians, but rather a longer history of transmission likely came about before they were chosen to be used as coffin decorations. The ancient leather roll also has many illustrations and drawings not seen on any other coffins or historical monuments.
