The catacombs of kom El shofaqa also known as the hill of treasure, regarded as a huge necropolis and royal cemetery that dates back to the second century AD. The necropolis has a unique mixture of Roman, Hellenistic and pharaonic art elements reflected in the paintings on the wall, and the style of the statues, funeral objects and tombs. The archaeological site was one of the seven wonders in the middle ages.
The catacombs interior design
The underground catacombs are a bit scary; the scene of the carved stone tombs next to each other gives the illusion of sincere horror, but at the same time historical atmosphere. The Ptolemaic is Hellenistic kingdom that was based in Egypt, who followed the steps of ancient Egyptians of constructing underground hidden tombs for pharaohs and their wives. The Ptolemaic were so affected by the Egyptians, they believed in their concepts about death, after life journey and gods, and this is very shown in the catacombs that shows the pharaonic identity beside the Roman character.
The catacombs are serial of Alexandrian tombs reach deep under the ground, consists of three levels of 35 meters burial chambers cut into bedrocks. There is a rounded entrance leads to the catacombs levels; the third level is flooded by ground water leaks, and cannot be accessed. People usually enter the catacombs by rounded shaft with staircases lead to the principle tomb and the center piece which is an antechamber with columns. This center piece leads to inner sanctum. The antechamber is covered by cravings for Egyptian god Anubis (the god of dead) dressed like Romans, and some statue for Romans emperors who ruled Egypt during this period.
The antechamber maybe the major sight of the catacombs and the most important for having all the decorations and statues. Also, There are two passages lead to the Hall of Caracalla which has its own staircases. one of the catacombs main feature, are the two tombs of emperor Tigrane and wardian which are located few meters from the entrance.
The origin of the name
Catacombs of kom El shoqafa also known as (the mount of shards) in a reference for the clay objects left and the stone mud construction. in fact, this archaeological site have too many names. Some called it catacombs because it is similar to Rome Christian catacombs. But Arab came after and named it (the treasure hill)

To dig a group of tunnels under solid rock 3,500 year
El dilema en la construcción de la Gran Pirámide no fue solo el tamaño de las piedras y la gran altura. El proceso de construcción de las pirámides involucró varios trabajos secundarios como nivelar el lugar acordado para construir la pirámide, cortar y nivelar las piedras. y asegurándose de que sus superficies y lados estén nivelados con la base. No fue fácil de ingeniería alcanzar esta altura sin asegurarse de que las piedras grandes en la base de la pirámide sean consistentes entre sí para no causar un desequilibrio resultante de apilar las piedras una encima de la otra para alcanzar esta altura

Durante el Reino Antiguo surgió un elemento funerario singular, la llamada "estela de falsa puerta", un objeto de prestigio que se colocaba en la capilla de la tumba. La finalidad de las falsas puertas, que podían ser un bloque de piedra exento o estar talladas o pintadas en el propio muro, era permitir al alma del difunto transitar entre el más allá y el mundo terrenal. Así, podía recoger las ofrendas alimentarias que necesitaba para su sustento e "interactuar" con los vivos.
El Faro de Alejandría, una de las construcciones más altas en la historia antigua del mundo, alcanzó una altura de 134 m, por eso fue considerado una de las siete maravillas del mundo, desapareció por completo en el año 1468 de nuestra era.
Sarcófago antropomórfico de Ankhesenamun, esposa de Tutankamón, Reino Nuevo
Anjesenamón fue la tercera de las seis hijas de Akenatón y de la Gran Esposa Real, Nefertiti. Su nombre original, Ankesenamen, significa La que vive por Amón.
A la muerte de su padre, contrajo matrimonio con el príncipe TuTutankamó hijo y sucesor de Ajenatón, convirtiéndose así en la Gran Esposa Real, en 1327 a. C. Cuando su esposo restableció el culto a Amón y reabrió los templos, tras la revolución religiosa que llevó a cabo su padre, ambos cambiaron sus nombres, siendo respectivamente Tutankamón (antes Tutankatón) y AAnkesenamen.
nunca hubiéramos soñado algo así: una habitación –parecía un museo– repleta de objetos, algunos de ellos familiares, pero otros como jamás habíamos visto, amontonados unos sobre otros en una profusión aparentemente interminable". El egiptólogo británico Howard Carter resumía de este modo la impresión que tuvo al pasear la mirada por primera vez por las atestadas cámaras de la tumba del faraón Tutankamón, en noviembre de 1922. Era la primera vez que alguien contemplaba un ajuar funerario completo del Egipto faraónico que no había sido víctima de los saqueadores y ladrones de la Antigüedad. Por ello, el hallazgo no sólo ponía al descubierto un "tesoro" artístico único, sino que también constituía una oportunidad incomparable de estudiar y comprender el significado que el enterramiento y la vida en el más allá tenían para los antiguos egipcios.

Mummy of Pacheri It is the mummy of a man about 1.65 meter tall, who lived during the Ptolemaic Period, ca. 305-30 BC. It called the mummy of Pacheri, although the reading of the name remains problematic. The quality of its embalming, as well as the state of conservation make it a specimen noticeable and worthy of notice. The mummy is a perfect example for anyone wanting to understand the technique of embalming, and that is probably why it attracts such fascination from visitors. What adds to the charm of this mummy, is also its location in the museum. Indeed, located in a small niche at the back of the large sarcophagi room.

The history of the Philae Temple dates back to the Ptolemaic dynasty, around the 4th century BCE. However, the site's religious significance predates its construction, as there was likely an earlier temple on the island dedicated to Isis. The temple complex as it stands today was built over several centuries, with contributions from various rulers, including the Ptolemies and the Roman emperors. Construction continued well into the Roman period, with additions and renovations made over time. The temple's location on the island of Philae in the Nile River made it an important religious center, and it served as a place of pilgrimage for worshippers of Isis from all over the ancient world. In the 1960s, the temple complex was relocated to the nearby island of Agilkia due to the construction of the Aswan High Dam, which threatened to submerge the original site. This ambitious relocation project aimed to preserve the temple and its historical significance for future generations.
