Overview

À l'est du fort Qaitbay (1477-1479) bâti sur l'ancien emplacement du Phare d'Alexandrie, le site sous-marin consiste en un chaos de blocs antiques couvrant une surface de 115 m N/S par 140 m E/W, à une profondeur de 5 à 8 m. Parmi les 4081 blocs inventoriés, 35 fragments pharaoniques, la plupart inscrits, sont ici publiés sous forme de catalogue. Dix-neuf d'entre eux sont aujourd'hui exposés sur le site archéologique de Kôm el-Dikka. Ils comprennent les fragments de deux paires d'obélisques de Sethi Ier, des vestiges architecturaux tels que des colonnes papyriformes fermées et des architraves, des sphinx dont le plus ancien est inscrit au nom de Sésostris III et le plus récent au nom de Psammétique II.
